Answer:
12.2 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The key to this problem is trigonometry.
Imagine a right triangle. With a height, 10 ft (representing the tree's height), and a base of 7 ft (representing the horizontal distance to the worm).
Now the hypoteneuse length, or otherwise the distance from the worm is unknown.
So this is where we can use the pythagorean theorem.
here is the hypoteneuse length, and
and
are the other lengths of the triangle.
Since we know a and b we can solve for c.
But first we will square root both sides of the equation to get and not
.
Now just plug in our values for a and b respectively. (It doesn't matter what number replaces a or b, just make sure you are replacing a and b with the 2 known values) Calculate.
Round to the nearest tenth.

Step-by-step explanation:
You need to pay very close attention to the triangle similarity statement. This says that triangle NML is similar to triangle NVU. But if you look at the way that triangle NVU is oriented in its appearance, it's laying on its side. We need to set it upright so that angle N is the vertex angle, angle V is the base angle on the left, and angle U is the base angle on the right. When we do that we see that sides NV and NM are corresponding and exist in a ratio to one another; likewise with sides VU and ML. Setting up the proportion:
Filling in:
Cross multiply to get
324 = 108x
and x = 3
