PLEASE HELP ME PRETTY PLEASE
An arborist monitors growth of a baobab tree in an arboretum by standing 8 meters from the base of the tree and measuring the angle of elevation to the top. The angle of elevation to one tree is 30∘. What is the approximate height of the tree? Enter the answer as meters, rounded to the nearest tenth.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The approximate height of the tree is 4.6 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between the base of tree and arborist = 8 m

So, Base = 8 m

The angle of elevation to one tree is 30°

We are supposed to find What is the approximate height of the tree?

Using trigonometric property:

[tex]tan \theta = \frac{Perpendicular}{Base}\\Tan 30^{\circ}=\frac{Height}{8}\\\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{Height}{8}\\\frac{8}{\sqrt{3}}=Height\\4.618=Height[/tex]

So,  the approximate height of the tree is 4.6 m

Answer:

13.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Use 30 60 90 Triangle formula

A= 8

B= x sq root 3

C= 2x

8 sq root of 3 = 13.85 rounded to nearest tenth 13.9
