Distance of the person from the building (x)
tan 24 = 20/x => x = 20/tan 24 = 44.92 ft
The height of the building above the height of the person and the distance of the person from the building forms two legs of right angled triangle.
Therefore, if h is the height of the building, then;
tan 31 = (h-20)/44.92
h-20 = 44.92 tan 31
h = (44.92 tan 31) + 20 = 26.99 + 20 = 46.99 ft

(0,0) and (6,0)
First we subtract 18x from both sides
3x²-18x=0
Factor out a 3x
3x(x-6)=0
This means that x is either 0 or 6
The answer is given below:
<span> Given polynomial x^2+8x-48 = 0</span>
<span>x^2+12x-4x-48 = 0</span>
<span>x(x+12)-4(x+12) = 0</span>
<span>(x+12)(x-4) = 0</span>
<span>x+12 = 0</span>
Subtract 12 from each side.
<span>x+12-12 = 0-12</span>
<span>x = -12</span>
<span>and x-4 = 0</span>
Add 4 to each side.
<span>x-4+4 = 0+4</span>
<span>x = 4</span>
<span>Roots are -12,4.</span>
