see the attached picture to better understand the problem
we know that
in the right triangle ABC
tan 68°=opposite side angle 68/adjacent side angle 68
opposite side angle 68=AB----- height of the tree
adjacent side angle 68=BC-----> 14.3 m
so
tan 68=AB/BC-----> solve for AB
AB=BC*tan 68-----> AB=14.3*tan 68------> AB=35.39 m------> AB=35.4 m
the answer is
the height of the tree is 35.4 m
