Answer:

55.64

Step-by-step explanation:

The range finder is 92 feet from the building and 106 feet from the top of the building i.e. hypotheses

We will use the Pythagorean theorem:

x^2 = 106^2 - 92^2

= 11,236 -  8,464

= 2,772

= √2,772

x = 52.64978632

The height of the building:

h = x + 3

= 52.64978632 + 3

= 55.64978632

or

≈ 55.64 feet
