First, we need to find the area of the rectangle that the triangle RST is in, which would be 4*5=20. Second, we need to subtract the three triangles so the remaining area would be the area of the triangle that we need to solve for. The sum of the areas of the three triangles would be: 1/2*2*5 + 1/2*2*2 + 1/2*4*3 = 5 + 2 + 6 = 13.
A tree that is 100 feet tall casts a shadow that is 150 feet long ...
The angle at which the ray of the sun hit the ground is that which has a tangent equal to 100 / 150 or 2/3. This angle is equal to 33.69. Thus, the answer is letter B. 34°
