John works for a company that cuts down dead trees for the city. He needs to determine the height of the tree to ensure safety. He chooses a point 10 m from the base of the tree. From this point, the angle of elevation to the top of the tree is 46°. Determine the height of the tree to the nearest tenth of a meter.

10.4m

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question using the Trigonometric function of Tangent.

The formula is given as:

tan θ = Opposite/Adjacent

θ = Angle of Elevation = 46°

Opposite = Height of the tree = x

Adjacent = Distance from the base of the tree = 10m

Hence:

tan 46 = x/10

Cross Multiply

x = tan 46 × 10

x = 10.355303138m

Approximately to the nearest tenth = 10.4m

They are dependent events. Event A is choosing one musician while Event B is choosing another musician. THey are ALL musicians, no matter what instrument they play, we just know that there are 7 musicians in total. Therefore, the events are dependent because after choosing one musician, you would have 6 musicians left, instead of 7.
