Answer:

The horizontal and vertical displacement is 128.02 m and 68.07 m respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Displacement, d = 145 m

The top of a building at an angle of 28 degrees below the horizontal

We need to find the horizontal and vertical displacement.

For horizontal displacement,


D_x=d\cos\theta\\\\D_x=145* \cos(28)\\\\D_x=128.02\ m

For vertical displacement,


D_y=d\sin\theta\\\\D_y=145* \sin(28)\\\\D_y=68.07\ m

So, the horizontal and vertical displacement is 128.02 m and 68.07 m respectively.
