Two buildings with flat roofs are 60 m apart. From the roof of the shorter building, 40 m in height, the angle of elevation to the edge of the roof of the taller building is 40°. How high is the taller building?

the 8 in 8,420 is in the thousands place so it's value is 8 thousand.

the 8 in 6,870 is in the hundreds place so it's value is 8 hundred.

divide 8000 by 800 to find the answer:

8000 / 800 = 10

the 8 in 8,420 is 10 times greater than the 8 in 6,870

the correct answer would be:

220 centimeters

to get this you can use the pythagorean theorem

hope this

okay..i will pick 8!
