Answer:

313.9 m

Step-by-step explanation:

tan 36° = opp/adj

tan 36° = y/430

y = 430 tan 36°

y = 312.4

height = 1.5 + 312.4 = 313.9

Answer: 313.9 m

Answer:

313.9

Step-by-step explanation:

First use  trigonometric ratio of tan   .

consider the angle to be  36 .

base of the triangle to be 430  .

consider the perpendicular to be the height of the tower from the eye level of Jean to the top.  let's take it is   x  

the formula will be      tan  36  = x /430

find x  by using  tan  36    =  0.73   and multiplying this by  430  

it will be 312.4

adding the height of jean  1.5     .

total height of the tower is     313.9
