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.

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.
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
How do you find the angle of elevation of the sun if the shadow of the pole 60 ft tall reaches 92 ft from the pole?
Providing that the pole is on level ground you have the outline of a right angled triangle with an adjacent side of 92 ft (the shadow of the pole) and a opposite side of 60 ft (the height of the pole). To find the angle of elevation use the tangent ratio. Tangent = Opposite/Adjacent Tangent = 60/92 = 0.652173913 Tan-1(0.652173913) = 33.11134196 degrees Therefore the angle of elevation is 33o correct to two significant figures.
A tree casts a shadow of 23 meters when the angle of elevation of the sun is 23 Find the height of tree to the nearest meter?
Use the tangent ratio: 23*tan(23) = 9.762920773 Answer: 10 meters to the nearest meter
The angle of elevation from L to K measures 39 degrees if Kl 12 find jl?
9.3
How do you find the adjacent side of the angle of elevation of a right triangle if you have the angle of elevation and height?
i dont care about math even though i use it.
How can you find the height of tree?
Using trigonometery if you know the length of its shadow and angle of elevation
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

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

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!
From point A 40 meters 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 degree Find height flagpole th?
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.

How do you find coordinates to an angle?
A point has coordinates; an angle does not.
How do you find the height of a pole if you know how from the pole you are?
two vertical poles of equal height stand on either of a roadway wich is 20 ft wide. At a point in the roadway b/n the poles, the elevation of the taps of the poles are 30 degree and 60 degree. Find the height of the poles?
