PLEASE IM BEGGING SOMEONE. I NEED HELP FAST THANK YOU!! Jimmy, who is five and a half feet tall, sees a bird at the top of a tree and wonders how tall the tree is. Jimmy stands 18 feet from the tree. Jimmy takes an inclinometer (a device used to calculate angles of elevation) and measures the angle created from his horizontal gaze and the bird to be 50 degrees. How tall is the tree? 2. While calculating the height of the tree on the first part, Jimmy drops and breaks his inclinometer. He turns around to find that he is directly in the middle of the first tree with the bird and another tree which he thinks is 20 feet taller than the tree with the bird. What is the angle of elevation created from Jimmy’s horizontal eyeline and the top of the second tree? (Show all work including any equations used)

The height of first tree is

[ 5.5+18tan(50 degrees) ] ft. This is approximately 26.95 ft.

Angle of elevation from Jimmy's eyes to top of tree is arctan([20+18tan(50 degrees)] /18). This is approximately 66.53 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

It would help you to draw a picture for both of these.

You have a person whose height is 5.5 ft and from there horizontal gaze they see a bird from a 50 degree angle of elevation. He is standing 18ft ftom the tree.

So we will first want to find the distance from his eyesight level to the top of the tree. We can do this using the tangent ratio since we have the opposite and adjacent measurements.

Let the distance from eyesight level to the top of the tree be r.

tan(50)=r/18

Multiply both sides by 18:

18tan(50)=r

Now the height of the tree is

[5.5+18tan(50 degrees)] ft.

Now if he is the middle of two trees, then he 18 ft from the 2nd tree.

Since he says the height is 20ft taller than the first tree then it's height is

[20+5.5+18tan(50 degrees)] ft.

Now since we want to find his angle of elevation to the top of the 2nd tree we need to take out his height given us the distance from his eyesight level to the top of the tree which is

[20+18tan(50 degrees)] ft..

So again we are using the tangent ratio.

Let this angle if elevation be P.

tan(P)=[20+18tan(50 degrees)] /18

Take arctan() of both sides:

P=arctan([20+18tan(50 degrees)] /18)

idk man good luck man
