mike and charlie are facing each other. there is a flagpole exactly halfway between them. their line of sight to the top of the flagpole is 16 feet,
with an angle of elevation of 60°.
mike and charlie both calculated the height of the flagpole as shown below.
mike's calculation
sin(60°) = height
height = 16 .sin(60°)
charlie's calculation
tan(60°) = eeight
height: = 16. tan(60°)
13.86 ft
27.71 ft
examine mike and charlie's calculations and complete the statement below.
the person with the incorrect reasoning for the height of the flagpole
,because he incorrectly selected function when he should have utilized function
