Answer:
381.05 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
A right triangle can be formed with the bottom of the tree, the top of the tree, and you. In a right triangle, for any angle θ, tanθ=opposite/adjacent.
Let [tex]h[/tex] represent the height of the tree. The angle 60° has opposite side [tex]h[/tex] and adjacent side is 220.
Set up the following equation;
tan(60°)=h/220
Multiply both sides by 220:
h=220tan(60°)≈381.05 ft (rounded to the nearest hundredth, ans)
