Answer to Problem 24PPS

  x=10.75meter .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The given figure shows that the hypsometer whose dimension is given:

  Geometry, Student Edition, Chapter 7.3, Problem 24PPS

Calculation:

According to the question,

  ΔDEFΔFGH

Therefore, corresponding sides are proportional.

Set up the proportion:

  EFGH=DFFH6x=1015{substitutes these value}x=1510×6{cross multiplication}x=9010=9 .

The tree height is equal to 9 m plus, Bartola’s height of 1.75m.

Hence, the height of the tree is x=9+1.75=10.75 .
