If CA Is found to be 64 feet; DF, 16 feet; ED, 10 feet;what is the height of the tree? Ex. 668. To find the distance acrossa river from ^ to 5, a point C was locatedso that BC was perpendicular to AB atB, CD was then measured off 100 feetin length and perpendicular to BC at line of sight from Z> to ^ intersectedBC at E. By measurement CE wasfound to be 90 feet and EB 210 was the distance across the river ?
