The altitude of the triangle is 10.1 m.

What is the altitude of the triangle?

We can see that the triangle is a right angled triangle as we can see in the image. The altitude of the triangle is the highest point of the triangle. Let us label the angles A B C

C = 50 degrees

B = 90 degrees

A = 180 - (90 + 50) = 40 degrees

Then;

tan 40 = altitude/ 12 m

altitude = tan 40 degrees * 12 m

= 10.1 m
