Winthorp was observing birds at Old Settlers park one Saturday afternoon. Using some binoculars he purchased from Amazon on Black Friday, he saw

a cardinal land on a tree while making its yearly migration. While standing

approximately 8 feet from the tree, Winthorp’s binoculars were aimed 26

degrees above the horizontal. Determine the height of the branch that the

bird was standing on using the correct trigonometric ratio. Round your

answer to the nearest tenth.
