Question

The angle of inclination from the base of skyscraper A to the top of skyscraper B is approximately 10.9 degrees. If skyscraper B is 1425 feet​ tall, how far apart are the two​ skyscrapers? Assume the bases of the two buildings are at the same elevation.

Answer 1

269.46

Explanation:

sin(theta) = opposite / adjacent

adjacent = opposite / sin(theta)

adjacent = 1425*sin(10.9)

adjacent = 269.4610063
