Answer:
Charlie is incoerre
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Line of sight to top of flagpole = 16 feets
Angle of elevation = 60°
The height of the flagpole :
Applying trigonometry to the drawing in the attached picture :
We use:
Sinα = opposite / hypotenus
This enables us to use the value of the hypotenus (line of sight) to obtain the missing height value (h)
Sin(60°) = h / 16
h = 16 * sin 60
h = 16 * 0.8660254
h = 13.856406
Hence flagpole is about 13.86 feets high
Charlie's reasoning is incorrect, the line of sight constitutes the hypotenus and not Adjacent and hence, shoul

The denominators are same
So we combine the numerators
To remove parenthesis we distribute negative sign inside the second parenthesis
Morgan made a mistake. He forgot to distribute the negative sign
Morgan forgot to distribute the negative sign to two of the terms 2t and 2 inside second parenthesis
