I believe it's C. It's the most informative and they intersect at (-3, 9)
Answer:
86.63 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The tangent relation applies.
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
tan(77°) = (tree height)/(20 ft)
tree height = (20 ft)·tan(77°) ≈ 86.63 ft

<em>Additional comment</em>
It is somewhat problematic for Bob to see the top of a white pine tree at that angle of elevation. His view would likely be obscured by the branches of the tree.
Multiply 2.5 by 18 to get 45, which is the answer. 45 yards of ribbon for 18 balloons
Answer:
14.6
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve using the Trigonometric function Cosine
cos θ = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
θ = 40°
Hypotenuse = 19
Adjacent = x
Therefore,
cos 40 = x/19
Cross Multiply
x = cos 40 × 19
x = 14.554844419
Approximately to the nearest tenth,
x = 14.6
