its says 32.6 but i made some errors while calculating so , thats why i said 33.2 anyway

beliefe it or not my front cover is cut off so i cant see the name at all but i think its DAVID RAYNER IGCSE FOR MATHEMATICS

I know why I got it wrong. You see in your diagram you wrote 7 m in between those two lines. I thought 7m was the length of the staright one.

See diagram.

(a) Since tan x = Opposite/Adjacent

Hence, tan 25 = h / length OA

Re-arranging we get h / tan25 = length OA

(b) Same idea as above :  tan 33 = h / length OB  

Re-arranging give  Length OB = h/ tan33

Give me some time for (c)

Look carefully at triangle ABO. It is a right angle triangle. Hence, using Pythagoras's Theorem :

60^2 = (\frac{h}{tan25})^2 + (\frac{h}{tan33})^2


3600 = \frac{h^2}{0.217443} + \frac{h^2}{0.4217302}


3600 = \frac{ 0.217443h^2+0.4217302h^2}{0.217443*0.4217302}


3600 = \frac{ 0.639173222h^2}{0.091702213}


3600 * 0.091702213=0.639173222h^2


330.1279699 =0.629173222 h^2


Solving this gives h = 22.7 m
