Answer 1

The zip line forms a right triangle with the tree, when elevated

The height of the tree is 35 meters

How to calculate the height of the tree

Represent the height of the tree with h.

So, the height h is calculated using the following sine function

$\sin(10) = \frac{h}{200}$

Make h the subject

h = 200 * sin(10)

Evaluate the product

h = 35 meters

Hence, the height of the tree is 35 meters
