Angles of elevation and depression 2015-03-08
Timmy pose la question :
Joel is walking down a street and sees a 115 ft tall building in front of him. He stops 190 feet from the base of the building at the tip of the building's shadow. Round answers to three decimal places.

A. If there was a piece of rope from the top of the building to Joel, how long would it be?
B. What is the angle of elevation from Joel to the top of the building?
C. Margaret says that she could find the angle of depression from the top of the building to Joel by subtracting the angle of elevation from 90°. Is she correct? Explain.

A man is standing on top of a building 2015-03-06
kiki pose la question :
a man of height 1.5m standing on top of a building of height 48.5m views another building across the square. he observe that the angle of depression of the bottom of the building is 40 degrees and the angle of depression of the top of the building is 5 degrees. Both buildings stand on the same level
a) calculate the distance of the man from the base of the building across the square measured along the line of sight

The angle of depression 2014-03-08
Ranger_minor pose la question :
A woman of height 1.4 metres standing on the top of a building 34.6 metres high views a tree some distance away. she observes that the angle of depression of the bottom of the tree is 35 degrees and the angle of depression of the top of the tree is 29 degrees.

assume that the building and the tree are on level ground :
1). calculate the distance of the woman from the top of the tree measured along her line of sight.

Using trig to find the height of a hill 2013-08-14
Anna pose la question :
From the top of a hill, the angles of depression of two successive milestones on a level road, which leads straight away from the hill, are 5degrees and 15degrees respectively. Fine the height of the hill.
Suggestion: BE is drawn perpendicular to AD. Find BE, then BD, finally CD.

Thanks :)
