Question

Please explain.......​

Answer 1

h= 68 ft

Explanation:

To solve for height of the building, we would add 28 feet and the y component of the tree.

To find the height of the tree when it leans against the building, use the Pythagorean Theorem.

`a^(2)+b^(2)=c^(2)`

`9^(2)+b^(2)=41^(2)`

`81+b^(2)=1681`

`b^(2) =1600`

b= 40

Now add 40 and 28 to find the height of the building.

40+28= 68 ft
