The closest distance up the tree where the wire reaches is 17.93 foot.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given-
Length of the wire, L = 12 foot
angle, Ф= 48°
Distance upto which the wire reaches the tree, x = ?
We know,
cos Ф = base/ hypotenuse
cos 48° = 12/ x
0.669 = 12/x
x = 17.93 foot
Therefore, the closest distance up the tree where the wire reaches is 17.93 foot.

Step-by-step explanation:
The normal distribution curve standard is bell shaped having mean =0 and std devition =1.
This is symmetrical about the y axis i.e. mean. More than 99% of the area under the curve lie between z=-3 to z=3
To find the area to the right of z =0.05 is equivalent to
calculating the
Probability that Z >0.05
= P(Z>0.05)
=0.5-0.0199
=0.4801

Plug in -12 for

!

Now get the left side equal to zero so you can factor:

Now you can factor out an

So for that to equal zero,
