Answer:

41.7feet

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are given the following

angle of depression = 50°

Distance of the pole from the base of the feet = 35feet (Adjacent)

Required

height of the school (opposite)

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

Tan theta = opp/adj

Tan 50 = H/35

H = 35tan 50

H = 35(1.1918)

H = 41.7feet

Hence the height of the school is 41.7feet

What is the height of an isosceles trapezoid, if the lengths of its bases are 5m and 11m, and the length of a leg 4m.

pashok25 [27]

Let EB and CF be two heights. Then quadrilateral EBCF is rectangle, so BC=EF=5 m. It is given that bases are BC=5 m and AD=11 m. Triangles ABE and DCF are congruent, thus,

$AE=FD=\dfrac{AD-EF}{2}=\dfrac{AD-BC}{2}=\dfrac{11-5}{2}=3.$

Consider right triangle ABE, by the Pythagorean theorem

$AB^2=EB^2+AE^2,\\ \\4^2=3^2+EB^2,\\ \\EB^2=16-9=7,\\ \\EB=\sqrt{7}\ m.$

Answer: $\sqrt{7}\ m.$
