Sven observes a bird on top of a light pole. His eye level is 6 feet off of the ground. Sven is 48 feet from the pole. If the distance to the bird from Svens eyes is 50 feet, how tall is the pole?

The height of the pole is 20ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the pole be '(h+6)'

Distance between the pole and Sven = 48ft.

Height of Sven = 6 ft.

Distance between the bird and his eyes = 50 ft.

We can find the value of 'h' using pythogoras theorem,

h = √(2500-2304)

h = √(196)

h = 14 ft.

The height of the pole = h + 6

= 14 + 6

= 20ft.

The height of the pole is 20ft.

answer: i think it is (1,-2)
