Mark is about to go on a zipline for the first time. The zipline is simply a wire, attached high up in a tree at one end and to the ground at the other. Mark will climb the tree, have the harness he's wearing connected to the wire of the zipline, and then slide down the wire. If the wire is 27 m long, and the angle of elevation of the wire is 33°, how high up in the tree is the other end? Round the answer to the nearest tenth of a meter.
- 14.7 m
- 22.6 m
- 32.2 m
