Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle.

tan35° =
(opposite)/(adjacent) =
(opp)/(100) ( multiply both sides by 100 )

100 × tan35° = opp , that is

opp ≈ 100 × 0.7002 = 70.02

Thus height of tree = 70.02 + 5 = 75.02 ft

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle on the right.

tan40° =
(opposite)/(adjacent) =
(25.17)/(rope) ( multiply both sides by rope )

rope × tan40° = 25.17 ( divide both sides by tan40° )

rope =
(25.17)/(tan40) =
(25.17)/(0.839) = 30 ft
