The angle elevation from point B to the top of a hill is 59°. If point B is 450 feet from the base of the hill, how high is the hill?

749 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a right-angle triangle so you can use trig ratios

750 feet

tan(59) = opposite/adjacent

tan(59l = X/450

X = 450×tan(59)

X = 748.9 ft

X = 749 ft (correct to 3 sf)

answer:  

step-by-step explanation:

here x represents the height of the pole,

and, the height of the shadow of the pole is 12 feet.

also, the angle of elevation from the top of the pole is 40°,

therefore,

by the low of sine,

which is the required equation for finding the value of x,

the monthly balance will be $75,000
