Answer: The answer is 139 feet

H = height of the pole =?

BC = ED = height of the transit = 4 ft

CD = BE = distance moved away from the base of the pole = 140 ft

Consider the ΔABE

tan44 = AE/BE

tan44 = h/140

h = 140 tan44

h = 135.2 ft

H = height of pole = AE + ED = h + ED = 135.2 + 4

H = 139.2 ft

Find the area and perimeter of the shape below. Help plzzz.
kozerog [31]
Find the area of each shape and add.Let's start with the first semi-circle(half-circle)
If the area of a circle is πr² , then the area of a semi-circle is 1/2πr² where is 22/7 or 3.14, and r is the radius which is 1.8 meters
A=1/2πr²
A=1/2*22/7*1.8*1.8
A=5.09 m²(rounded to nearest hundredth)
Since the semi-circles are two and have the same radius, multiply the area of the first one by two or go through the same process again.
So 5.09 *2=10.18meters square is the area of the two semi-circles
Now, let's find the area of a rectangle  which is length times width, where length is 6 meters and width is (1.8+1.8, because 1.8 is half the width)=3.6 meters
A=l*w
A=6*3.6
A=21.6meters square
Therefore the area of the shape is 10.18m²+21.6m²=219.888m²
