Answer:
264.49
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the picture.
We must use the tangent.
[tex]tangent=\dfrac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]
We have:
[tex]opposite=h\\adjacent=1,500\ ft\\\\\tan10^o\approx0.1763[/tex]
Substitute:
[tex]\dfrac{h}{1,500\ ft}=0.1763[/tex] multiply both sides by 1,500 ft
[tex]h=264.45\ ft\to h\approx264.49\ ft[/tex]
