While walking to school you pass a barn with a silo. Looking up to the top of the silo you estimate the angle of elevation to the top of the silo to be about 14°. You continue walking and find that you were around 40 m from the silo. Using this information and your knowledge of trigonometric ratios calculate the height of the silo in meters. Note: The silo is the structure beside the barn. Ensure that you write only the number/numerical value to the nearest whole number. For example if you think the height is 20.1 meters, write "20". B 14° 40 m A
