Question
![**Calculate the height using the following formula.**
\[ \text{Height (in ft)} = \sqrt{ \left( \frac{5280}{5} + 1 \right)^2 - \left( \frac{5280}{5} \right)^2 } \]
In this formula:
- The expression inside the square root calculates the height in feet.
- \(\frac{5280}{5}\) computes the division of 5280 by 5.
- Adding 1 to this quotient in the first term, and squaring both terms independently, forms the expression under the square root.
- Finally, the square root of the difference is taken to find the height in feet.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fbebde23b-f1cc-4409-b186-24339e0a9600%2Ff6e6f51c-3d9e-4474-ace6-1cef3a718107%2Fhbc589g_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
