Answer:
The correct answer is, second option
the angle that the telephone pole makes with the ground = 56.4°
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that,
A telephone pole that is 12 ft. tall has fallen against a house. If the top of the telephone pole touches the house 10 ft. above the ground
From the figure attached with this answer shows the pictorial representation of the scenario.
We have to find the <B
To find the angle
We have, trigonometric ratio
sin x = Opposite side / Hypotenuse
sin x = 10/12 = 0.8333
x = sin ⁻¹(0.8333)
<x = 56.4°
Second option is the correct answer.
