1. Mr. Brust is an "Egyptologist". In fact, he's so into all-things-Egypt that he is building a Pyramid in his back yard. The Pyramid has a square base and the sides are inclined at 52°. He wants the Pyramid to be 100 yards tall but isn't sure if he has enough room in his backyard. His backyard is a rectangle with dimensions of 200 yards by 150 yards. Does he have enough room to build the Pyramid? Why or why not?
