Aperson is standing exactly 36 ft from a telephone pole. there is a 30° angle of elevation from the ground to the top of the pole. what is the height of the pole?

Answer

Find out the  what is the height of the pole .

To proof

As given

A person is standing exactly 36 ft from a telephone pole.

There is a 30° angle of elevation from the ground to the top of the pole.

By using the trignometric identity

Here Base = 36 ft

put the value in  trignometric identity

Put in the above

The height of the pole is 20 .79 ft (approx) .

Hence proved

see explanation

step-by-step explanation:

since the sequence is geometric there is a common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = 4 ÷ - 2 = - 2

r = - 8 ÷ 4 = - 2

r = 16 ÷ 8 = - 2

the next term - 13 must be incorrect as it should be - 32 for the sequence to be geometric.

the first 4 terms are therefore geometric with common ratio r = - 2

h= 12 inches
