The tree was approximately 40.8ft tall.
You use the equation, a^2+b^2=c^2.
12^2 + 39^2 = x^2, add the results of 12^2 and 39^2 to make 1665 = x^2. You can take the positive root of both sides, 3√185, and it equals 40.80441152, which is rounded to 40.8.
Answer:
y = -x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the point-slope formula y - k = m(x -h):
y - [-1] = -1(x - 3), or
y + 1 = -x + 3, or
y = -x + 2
False because they cannot work
