Asurveyor 50 meters from the base of the cliff measures the angle of elevation to the top of the cliff at 72° what is the height of the cliff round to the nearest meter (use soh-cah-toa) show work

The height of the cliff is

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the angle of elevation

we know that

The tangent of angle x is equal to divide the opposite side angle x by the adjacent side angle x

In this problem

The opposite side angle x is the height of the cliff

The adjacent side angle x is the horizontal distance from the base of the cliff

we have

substitute the values and solve for h

y=mx+b

step-by-step explanation:

m slope

b y-intercept

the answer is 150.6

step-by-step explanation:

you multiply .02 by 30 and get .6.

and then you multiply 5.00 by 30 and get 150.

hope this !
