Let's solve this problem step-by-step.
STEP-BY-STEP SOLUTION:
We will be using Pythagoras theorem to solve this problem. This is as this problem forms a right-angle triangle. Pythagoras theorem is the following:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Where c = hypotenuse of right-angle triangle
Where a and b = other two sides of right-angle triangle
To begin with, we will substitute the values from the problem into the equation. Then we will make the height of the tree the subject of the equation.
a = height of tree = ?
b = distance from the bird on the ground to the base of the tree = 8 metres
c = distance bird travelled from the ground to the top of the tree = 9 metres
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + 8^2 = 9^2
a^2 = 9^2 - 8^2
a = square root of ( 9^2 - 8^2 )
a = square root of ( 81 - 64 )
a = square root of ( 17 )
a = 4.123...
a = 4.1 ( rounded to the nearest tenth )
FINAL ANSWER:
Therefore, the height of the tree is 4.1 metres ( rounded to the nearest tenth ).

Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the value of x, we use the mid-segment theorem of trapezoid
The theorem is that the mid-segment is half the sum of the other two segments
We have this as
;
5x - 20 = 1/2(2x + 6 + 4x + 2)
2(5x-20) = 6x + 8
5x -20 = 3x + 4
5x -3x = 4 + 20
2x = 24
x = 24/2
x = 12
The rang is based on values so maybe the range is 92
