Question

2. A tree broken by a windstorm. However, it did not break into two
pieces but bent so that the top of the tree touched the ground 3m
away from the foot of the tree. The point where tree broke was 4m
above the ground, find the total height of the tree before it broke.​

Answer 1

Answer:

9m

Step-by-step explanation:

let DA be the length of the tree and the point at which the tree broke be B.

let the point at which the broken part and and the ground meet be C

given that AB=4m and AC=3m and DB=BC

therefore,

by Pythagoras theorem

AB^2+AC^2=BC^2

4^2+3^2=BC^2

16+9=BC^2

25=BC^2

BC=$\sqrt 25$

BC=5m

length of tree AD=4+5=9m
