Downtown Sardis City is located due north of a straight segment of train track oriented in an east-west direction (see map below). Sarah is on a train traveling from west to east and notices that Downtown Sardis City is visible at an angle A = 45º to the tracks. After traveling 8 kilometers, Sarah notices that the angle has increased to B = 55º. To the nearest kilometer, estimate the vertical distance from the track to Downtown Sardis City

so a parallelogram is just like a square base times height. multiply 40 and 39 to get 1560 inches.

a triangle is base times height divided by two. so multiply 7.9 and 5 and then divide it by 2 to get 19.75inches.

the kite can be split into two separate triangles and added together to get the total area. 30 x 4 /2 which equals 60. make sure to double it for the two triangles making 120.

if you need just tell me and i will come to the rescue.
