Answer:

23ft approx

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Distance from tree= 10ft

Length of ladder= 25ft

We can find the height of the tree by applying the Pythagoras theorem

z^2= x^2+y^2

z= The height of the ladder

x= The distance from the tree

y= The height of the tree

25^2= 10^2+ y^2

625=100+y^2

625-100=y^2

525=y^2

y= √525

y= 22.91

Hence the height of the tree is 23ft approx
