The shadow of a telephone pole is 20 feet long. you can measure the angle of elevation from the end to the shadow to the top of the telephone pole to be 70. what is the height of the telephone pole Ro?
Height of telephone pole: 20*tan(70) = 55 feet rounded
When is the shadow equal in length to your height?
When the angle of elevation equals 45 degrees. tan-1(1) = 45 degrees.
What does the elevation mean?
Elevation means the height of something.
Two observers 1600 meters apart the angles of elevation to a helicopter hovering over the road between them. The angles of elevation are 32 degrees and 50.5 degrees. what is the height?
659.88 metersTan(32)=h/xTan(50.5)=h/yx+y=1600
What is the angle of elevation for the ramp that is 20 feet away from the wall and 15 feet tall?
height = 15 ft base = 20 ft angle of elevation = arctan (15/20) = 36.87 degrees
What is the height of a moutain when from the top of a tower which is 180 meters high the angle of elevation is 25.3 degrees and its bottom angle of elevation is 26.42 degrees?
Using the sine rules in trigonometry the height of the mountain works out as 3704 meters in height to the nearest whole number.

What is the height of a mountain when from the bottom of a tower 180 meters in height the angle of elevation is 26.42 degrees and from its top the angle of elevation is 25.3 degrees?
By drawing a sketch from the given information then using triangulation and trigonometry the height of the mountain works out as 3704.435 meters rounded to three decimal places.
What is the height of a tower when the distance between its angles of elevation are 32 degrees and 43 degrees is 8 meters?
Using trigonometry the height of the tower works out as 15.2 meters rounded to one decimal place.
What is the equation for height in physics?
Height of an object = (elevation of its top) - (elevation of its bottom)
What is the difference between height and elevation?
There is a big difference between height and elevation. Height is how tall something is. Elevation is how far above sea level something is.
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 height of a tree when its angles of elevation are 32 degrees and then 45 degrees taken at 8 meters apart?
Using trigonometry the height of the tree works out as 15.15 meters rounded to two decimal places
What does the elevation mean?
