The question is:
You decide to climb a vertical rock wall at an amusement part. From a point that is 10m from the base of the wall, the angle of elevation of the top of the wall is 72 degrees. What is the height of the wall to the nearest metre?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! From a point that is 10m from the base of the wall, the angle of elevation of the top of the wall is 72 degrees. What is the height of the wall to the nearest metre?
-----------------
tan(72) = h/10
h = 10*tan(72) =~ 30.777
h = 31 m
