Answer: The height of the telephone pole = $15.046

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Angle of elevation= 62 degrees.

Distance of Ben from the base of the pole = 8 feet

According to trigonometry, we have

\tan x=\dfrac{\text{side opposite to x}}{\text{side adjacent to x}}

i.e.

\tan 62^{\circ}=\dfrac{\text{ height of the telephone pole}}{8}\\\\(1.880726)=\dfrac{\text{ height of the telephone pole}}{8}\\\\\text{ Height of the telephone pole} = 8\times 1.880726\approx15.046

Hence, The height of the telephone pole = $15.046

oee [108]
Answer:

Order from Least to Greatest
-4/7  <  -1/19  <  7/4


Showing Work
Rewriting as fractions or any negatives if necessary:
-1/19, 7/4, -4/7

The least common denominator (LCD) is: 532.

Rewriting as equivalent fractions with the LCD:
-28/532, 931/532, -304/532

Ordering these fractions by the numerator:
-304/532  <  -28/532  <  931/532

Therefore, the order of your input is:
-4/7  <  -1/19  <  7/4
