1 answer:
*see attachement for diagram
Answer:
40.4 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the part that broke away be represented as "x"
Thus, the digram makes a right triangle shape.
The closest total length of tree before the storm = x + 14 ft
Apply trigonometric function to find x.
Reference angle = 58°
Side adjacent to reference angle = 14 ft
Hypotenuse = x
Apply CAH, which is:
Cos 58 = adj/hyp
Cos 58 = 14/x
x * Cos 58 = 14
x = 14/Cos 58
x = 26.4191188 ≈ 26.4 ft
✔️closest total length of tree before the storm = x + 14 ft = 26.4 + 14 = 40.4 ft

Answer: 25.12 ft
To find the circumference of a circle, multiply the diameter with π (pi)
Formula: 2πr (2 × radius) (π = 3.14)
In the problem...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We can multiply 3.14 by 8 to get the circumference.
3.14 × 8 = 25.12
Hence, 25.12 is the answer, but we can do it another way.
Let me know if you have any questions.
