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

ehidna [41]

Answer:

Therefore, on the graph;

The height = 7.5 units

And base = 5.0 units

Attached is an image for further information;

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

1 unit on the grid represent 2m of the garden;

Ratio = 1/2 unit/m

For the height;

height h = 15m

On the graph;

h = 15m × 1/2 unit/m

h = 7.5 units

For the base;

Base b = 10m

On the graph;

b = 10m × 1/2 unit/m

b = 5 units

Therefore, on the graph;

The height = 7.5 units

And base = 5.0 units
