A man who is 2m tall stands on horizontal ground 30m from a tree . The Angel of elevation of the top of the tree from his eyes is 28 . Fine the distance between the man eyes to the top of the tree

33.97 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The height of a man = 2 m

He stands on a horizontal ground 30m from a tree.

The angle of elevation of the top of the tree from his eyes is 28°.

We need to find the distance between the man eyes to the top of the tree. Let the height of the tree be h

Using trigonometry to find such that,

Now let us consider that the distance between the man eyes to the top of the tree is x. Using Pythagoras theorem,

So, the distance between the man eyes to the top of the tree is 33.97 m.
