At a point on the ground 50 feet from the foot of a tree, the angle of elevation to the top of the tree is 53. What is the height of the tree rounded up to the nearest hundredth.

At a point on the ground 50 feet from the foot of a tree, the angle of elevation to the top of the tree is 53°. Find the height of the tree to the nearest foot.

I got 50xtan53 = 66.35 nearest foot ? would I use tan or sin since I'm finding the foot of the tree

Step-by-step explanation:

.

the answer is 4.8 units on e2020.

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

in the given figure, two triangles are inscribed in a circle where ∠bae ≅ ∠dae which makes the side be and de equal so we can write it as:

3x - 24 = x + 10

solving this equation for x to get:

3x - x = 10 + 24

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

therefore, the value of x = 17.
