Answer:
Height of Tower = 41.8901 ft
Base to Ground Wire = 94.0905 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
So you want to find the opposing side of the angle, as well as the distance from the base to where the wire is attached to the ground. You would need to use CAH to find the ground, and SOH to find the height. To find the height or opposite, take the Sine of 24°, 0.4067, and times it by your hypoteneuse 103 to get an exact height of 41.8901 ft. Next, use the Cosine of 24°, 0.9135, and times that by your hypoteneuse 103 to get 94.0905 ft.
Here are the equations:
sin(24)=
cos(24)=

Answer:
21 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Call the triangle ABC, with the right angle at B, the hypotenuse AC=25, and the given leg AB=10. The altitude to the hypotenuse can be BD. Since the "other leg" is BC, we believe the question is asking for the length of DC.
The right triangles formed by the altitude are all similar to the original. That means ...
AD/AB = AB/AC . . . . . . ratio of short side to hypotenuse is a constant
Multiplying by AB and substituting the given numbers, we get ...
AD = AB²/AC = 10²/25
AD = 4
Then the segment DC is ...
DC = AC -AD = 25 -4
DC = 21 . . . . . centimeters
