The rope tied to the tree will make a triangle.

The height of the triangle = 180cm
The base of the triangle = 200cm

to find how much rope you need, work out the hypotenuse using Pythagoras:

180^2 + 200^2 = 72400
√72400 = 269.0724809

This is the length of rope he needs, however you need to +30 as this is what he will need when he ties the rope:

269.0724809 + 30 = 299.0724809

299.0724809 is less than the 270cm of rope he has, so he would need more.
