Matt wants to measure the height of a tree. He walks exactly 100 feet away from the base of the tree and looks up at it. The angle from his eyes to the top of the tree is 35 degrees.
If his eye level is 5 feet from the ground, what is the height of the tree?
sin 35 degrees = 0.5736
cos 35 degrees = 0.8192
tan 35 degrees = 0.7002
Th tree is approximately __ feet tall
