Question

The angle of depression from the hot-air

balloon to the car is 32°
How high is the hot-air balloon flying?
Give your answer to 2 s.f.
6600 feet
Not drawn accurately

Answer 1

3497.47 feet

I think it's the answer because when you look where I've drawn...that's where the angle of depression is and 6600 is the hypotenuse, so you use the sine method where you have opposite over hypotenuse

`\sin(32 = opposite \6600)`

and you'll get your answer as 3497.47
