George walked around the entire perimeter of his rectangular garden. The length of his garden was 12 yards and the width was 8 y

Marina86 [1]

To find perimeter, you use this equation for a parallelogram:
2l+2w=p
Let’s not put the numbers in,
2(12)+2(8)
24+16
40
So b, 40 yards is how much he walked.

At a certain time of day, the angle of elevation of the sun is 80degree. Find the height of a tree whose shadow is 44 feet long.

Arte-miy333 [17]

The height of the tree is 249.5 feet

<h3>How to determine the height of the tree?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Elevation angle = 80 degrees
Shadow length (L) = 44 feet

Let the height of the tree be x.

So, we have:

tan(80) = x/44

Multiply both sides by 44

x = 44 * tan(80)

Evaluate

x = 249.5

Hence, the height of the tree is 249.5 feet
