Pls help this is probably super easy but not for me A student is standing 20 feet away from the base of a tree. he looks to the top of the tree from a 50 degree angle of elevation. His eyes are 5 feet above the ground. using cos 50°≈0.64, what is the height of the tree to the nearest foot?

A. 29 feet
B. 24 feet
C. 31 feet
D. 36 feet

A.    29 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Use cos to find the hypotenuse

cos  = adj/hp

0.64 = 20/hyp

hyp = 20/0.64

hyp = 31.25

Use Pythagorean Theorem to find the height of tree above eyes

a² + b² = c²

a² + 20² = 31.25²

a² = 31.25² - 20²

a² = 576.5625

a = 24  (to the nearest foot)

Finally add in the eye height

h = 24 + 5

h = 29 feet

A. 29 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

14.3

step-by-step explanation:

add all the numbers together.

9 + 12 + 15 + 16 + 17 + 17 = 86

now, divide 86 by how many numbers we have: 6.

86 / 6 = 14.3
