Answer:

Explanation:

1. Imagine a triangle with base side 36 feet and Kate at the right with the angle of elevation, 24 degrees. We can use tangent:

tan 24 = o/a ; tan(24) = o/36 ; 36(tan(24)) = o ; o = 16 feet

This is how tall the screen is.

2. We do a similar operation:

tan(74) = o/a ; tan(74) = 555/a ; a = 555/tan(74) ; a = 159.1 feet

Hope this helps!
