Answer:

15foot

Step-by-step explanation:

The set up will give a right angled triangle.

The length of the shadow will be the hypotenuse = 16foot

The height of the tree will be the opposite = x

The angle of elevation = 70°

Using the SOH CAH TOA trig identity

Sin theta = opposite/hypotenuse

Sin 70 = x/16

x=16sin70

x = 15.04feet

Hence the height of the tree to the nearest whole foot is 15foot
