The altitude of the triangle is 10.1 m.
What is the altitude of the triangle?
We can see that the triangle is a right angled triangle as we can see in the image. The altitude of the triangle is the highest point of the triangle. Let us label the angles A B C
C = 50 degrees
B = 90 degrees
A = 180 - (90 + 50) = 40 degrees
Then;
tan 40 = altitude/ 12 m
altitude = tan 40 degrees * 12 m
= 10.1 m
