the answer would be...13.98922974, which of course needs to be simplified. i actually had a similar equation to this except with different numbers. you need to use tangent to figure this out.

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


Simple angle of elevation word problem?

A simple angle of elevation problem...You want to find out the height of a tree. You measure the distance from you to the base and find that it is 100 feet. You measure the angle of elevation of the top and find that it is 30 degrees. You are six feet tall. How tall is the tree?Answer: The tree is 64 feet tall. Its height is tangent 30 times 100 + 6.


How do you find the angle of elevation from the tip of the shadow of a 12 foot flag pole to the top of the pole is 60 degrees?

You can use trigonometry to find the angle of elevation. Let x be the distance from the tip of the shadow to the base of the pole and the height of the pole be y. Then, tan(60 degrees) = y/x. Given that the height of the pole is 12 feet, you can solve for x to find the angle of elevation.


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


At a certain time of day the angle of elevation of the sun is 30 degree A tree has a shadow that is 25 feet long Find the height of the tree to the nearest foot?

Tan60= 25/Height. Height = 25/Tan60 = 14.43


Work done with an angle of elevation?

the angle of elevation would be the angle between the horizon and the line of sight to whatever object you are measuring to. Lets say for instance that you see a plane, and you determine that it has an angle of elevation of 30 deg. This means that from the horizon, you would need to look up at an angle of 30 degrees to see that plane. below I linked to a diagram which illustrates it quite well. Hope this helped!


Which map should I use to find the height of a place above sea level?

You should use a topographic map to find the height of a place above sea level. These maps show the elevation contours of an area, allowing you to determine the elevation at any specific point.


A tree 40 feet high casts a shadow 58 feet long find the measure of the angle of elevation of the sum?

To find the angle of elevation of the sun, we can use the tangent function. The tangent of an angle is equal to the opposite side (height of the tree) divided by the adjacent side (length of the shadow). So, tan(angle) = height of the tree / length of the shadow. Plugging in the values, we get tan(angle) = 40 / 58. Taking the arctan of both sides gives us the angle, so the angle of elevation of the sun is approximately 33.56 degrees.

The language of the question is too ambiguous. In mathematics, we use precise language to avoid this problem. point a is 40 metres from the base of building B the angle of elevation to the top of building C is 51 degree and to the top of the flagpole D on top of building is 56 dedree


How do you find angle of depression?

The angle of depression of a point is the angle between the line joining that point and the point of observation and the horizontal from the point of observation.
