Question

Red maple trees can reach heights up to 80 feet. What is the height of the maple tree shown below?

Answer 1

Explanation:

`sin 35/h = sin 90/95\\n=54.48976145\\54.5`

Answer 2

h = 54.5

Explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

sin theta = opp / hyp

sin 35 = h/95

95 sin 35 = h

h=54.48976

Rounding to the nearest tenth

h = 54.5
