Need asap! to find the height of a pole, a surveyor moves 120 feet away from the base of the pole and then, with a transit of 8 feet tall, measures the angle of elevation to the top of the pole to be 36°. to the nearest foot, what is the height of the pole? a. 87 feet b. 95 feet c. 71 feet d. 79 feet

95 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer the attached figure.

A surveyor moves 120 feet away from the base of the pole i.e. BC = 120 feet.

BC= ED = 120 feet (refer the figure)

Height of transit i.e. DC = 8 feet

DC = EB = 8 feet (refer the figure)

The angle of elevation to the top of the pole to be 36° i.e. ∠ADE = 36°

Height of pole = AE+EB

To find AE use trigonometric ratio

Height of pole = AE+EB = 87.12+8 = 95.12 feet≈95 feet

Hence the height of pole is 95 feet

the answer to this question is yes

step-by-step explanation:

where is the question is there is a formula or is there not one
