Question

2. A tower is 15.24 m high. At a certain distance away from the tower, an observer

determines that the angle of elevation to the top of it is 41°. How far is the observer
from the base of the tower?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Opposite side from the 41° angle = 15.24m

We wish to find the adjacent side (horizontal length)

Therefore 15.24m / tan41° = 17.53m.
