Answer:

A. tan 38° = opposite/adjacent

opposite = (tan 38°)(adjacent)

opposite = (0.31)(17 ft)

opposite = 5.27 ft

B. height is = 5.27 ft

The models the height of the building is y = 17 tanθ and if θ=38° then the height is 13.28 feet

Model

A mathematical model is a linguistic and mathematical concepts-based description of a system. Mathematic modeling is the process of creating a mathematical model.

How to find the model?

(A) Give the building and is shadow is 17 feet and make θ.

then the relation is tanθ =y/17

So y = 17 tanθ

(B) If the is angle is 38°

then

tan38° =y/17

0.7813 = y/17

        y = 13.28 feet

Hence the model is tanθ and when the angle is 38° the value of y is 13.28 feet.
