The height of the tree is 249.5 feet
How to determine the height of the tree?
The given parameters are:
- Elevation angle = 80 degrees
- Shadow length (L) = 44 feet
Let the height of the tree be x.
So, we have:
tan(80) = x/44
Multiply both sides by 44
x = 44 * tan(80)
Evaluate
x = 249.5
Hence, the height of the tree is 249.5 feet
