What is the Angle of elevation of Qutub Minar when you are at a distance of 5metre using trigonometry?

If you are looking for the angle of elevation from the ground to the top of Qutub Minar, here is a solution. Qutub Minar is 72.5 meters tall. The angle of elevation would equal arctan(72.5/5). It comes out to approximately 86.05 degrees.
