You can put this solution on YOUR website!
at a distance of 10.8 meters from a tree, the angle of elevation to the top of the tree is 26 degrees. how tall is the tree.
\n" ); document.write( "If you draw this out you would see a right triangle from the point to the tree to the top of the tree.
\n" ); document.write( "The tangent of an angle of a right triangle = opposite/adjacent
\n" ); document.write( " $\"tan%2826%29=x%2F10.8m\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"10.8m%2Atan%2826%29=10.8m%28x%2F10.8m%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"10.8m%2Atan%2826%29=x\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Use a scientific calculator to find: x=5.2675 meters
\n" ); document.write( "You can round off to whatever decimal you were asked to like x=5.27 meters
\n" ); document.write( "Happy Calculating!!! \n" ); document.write( "
