From a point on the ground 12ft from the base of a flagpole, the angle of elevation of the top of the pole measures 53 degrees. how tall is the flagpole

The height of flagpole is 15.925 feet.

Let us consider the height of flagpole is h feet.

Since, angle of elevation is 53 degree.

According to question statement, a right triangle is formed where base is 12 feet .

We have to find height i.e. height of flagpole

the flagpole is 16 feet tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

A right angle triangle is formed.

The distance of the point on the ground from the base of the flagpole represents the adjacent side of the right angle. The height of the flagpole from the ground represents the opposite side of the right angle.

To determine the height, h of the flagpole, we would apply the Tangent trigonometric ratio.

Tan θ, = opposite side/adjacent side. Therefore,

Tan 53 = h/12

h = 12Tan53 = 12 × 1.327

h = 16 feet to the nearest whole number

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.

da freeck kinda math is this just drop out
