A point on the ground is 50 feet from my house. The angle of elevation to the top of the house is 48∘. Find the height of the house to the nearest tenth.

Respuesta :

Answer:

55.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

the scenario is attached in the form of a picture

We have to find h.

We will use the trigonometric ratio of tan to find the height of the house.

[tex]tan\ 48 = \frac{h}{50}\\ 1.1106*50=h\\55.53=h[/tex]

Hence the height of the house is 55.53 feet

Rounding off to nearest 10th

height = 55.5 feet ..
