Answer:
200m
Explanation:
The diagram illustrating this problem is attached below:
Using trigonometrical ratio, we want to determine the value of x:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \tan 14\degree=\frac{50}{x} \\ \implies x\times\tan 14\degree=50 \\ x=\frac{50}{\tan 14\degree} \\ x=200.54m \end{gathered}[/tex]
The fire across the ground is 200m away from the tower.
