Solve for theta (in degrees)

A = 11 , B = 23

25.559 degrees truncated

Step-by-step explanation:

There are many ways of solving this problem. The way I went about doing it was taking the inverse tangent of 11/23, to get 25.559 degrees.  

answer:  

step-by-step explanation:

here x represents the height of the pole,

and, the height of the shadow of the pole is 12 feet.

also, the angle of elevation from the top of the pole is 40°,

therefore,

by the low of sine,

which is the required equation for finding the value of x,

answer

d. 10

explanation

the distance from point y to wx is the height of the triangle.

using pythagoras theorem,

group similar terms to get,

this implies that,

take positive square root of both sides to get,

this implies that,
