Answer: 6.34\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The length of the wire is l=15\ ft

The Wire makes an angle of 25^{\circ} with horizontal

Suppose the height of the tree is h

From the figure, we can write

\Rightarrow \sin 25^{\circ}=\dfrac{h}{l}\\\\\Rightarrow h=l\sin 25^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow h=15\sin 25^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow h=6.34\ ft

Thus, the height of the tree is 6.34\ ft
