Pam is placing a bird feeder in a tree in her back yard. She first needs to put up a 10-inch wooden platform in the fork of two tree branches that make a 52° angle, as shown below 10 in 52 What equation can Pam use to determine x, the distance up the tree trunk from the fork at which she should drill to attach the platform? tan 52° = 10 in A. sin 52° = 10 in B.
