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


How do you do igcse math project?

you could do a model showing the angle of elevation and angle of depression of a building


A surveyor stands on the roof of a building. The angle of elevation to the roof of the building next door is 25°. The angle of depression to the base of that building is 44°. The buildings are forty feet apart?

57 ft


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 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!


A building is 120 feet high. at a certain distance away from the building. an observer notices the angle of elevation to the top of the building is 41 degrees. how far is the observer from the base of the building?

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


The angle of elevation to the top of a building from a position on the ground 100 meters from the base of the building is 40 degrees how tall is the building?

tan40=x/100 100tan(40)=83.9m


Work done with an angle of elevation?

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!


When the angle of elevation on of the sun is 75 degree a building casts shadow of 125 feet how tall is the degree?

If you mean the height of the building then it works out as 466.5063509 feet


Can you give me examples of math investigatory project in trigonometry?

Determine how tall a building, flagpole, street light or basketball goal is. They need to understand basic trig, and angle of elevation/depression. They would need to make a clinometer or hypsometer.
