A building is 60ft high From a distance at A on the ground the angle of elevation to the top of the building is 40 From a lil nearer at B the angle of elevation is 70 Find the distance from A to B?
Using the formula: tangent = opposite/adjacent whereas tangent angle = height/ground distance, will help to solve the problem
What is the angle of elevation from the top of a bluilding from a point 165 feet away from the building on ground level is 26 degrees what is the height of the building?
The question is not quite clear but if the angle of elevation is 26 degrees at a distance of 165 feet away from the building then its height is 80.47587711 feet. 165*tan(26) = 80.47587711 feet
What is the relationship between the angle of elevation and the highest point?
If the base of the elevation is at a distance d from the observer, then the highest point is at a height = d*tan(angle of elevation)
What is the equation for height in physics?
Height of an object = (elevation of its top) - (elevation of its bottom)
What is the approximate height of a building when the angle of elevation at the top of a building is 34 degrees and at a point 80 feet closer the angle of elevation is 45 degrees?
It can be shown that:height = (d tan α tan β)/(tan α - tan β)where: α is the angle closest to the objectβ is the angle further away from the objectd is the distance from the point of angle α to the point of angle βThus: height = (80 ft × tan 45° × tan 34°)/(tan 45° - tan 34°) ≈ 165.78 ft
The horizontal distance between a motorcycle and a building is 200m and the angle of elevation in the motorcycle to the top of the building is 65 what is the height of the building?
It is: tan(65)*200 = 429 meters rounded
At a certain distance the angle of elevation to the top of a building is 60 From 40ft further back the angle of elevation is 45 Find the height of the building?
Angle of elevation: tangent angle = opposite/adjacent and by rearranging the given formula will help to solve the problem

What is the height or altitude of the land?
The height or the altitude of the land is its distance above sea level. This is referred to as the elevation of the land.
What is the relationship between the angle of elevation and the highest point?
If the base of the elevation is at a distance d from the observer, then the highest point is at a height = d*tan(angle of elevation)
What are the terms of elevation and relief in science?
