What is the height of Vestheild to the nearest whole metre?

You must show all your working clearly.

Respuesta :

Answer:  13 meters

=============================================

Work Shown:

Refer to the diagram below.

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(A) = BC/AB

tan(23) = x/30

x = 30*tan(23)

x = 12.73424

x = 13 meters
