What instrument is used to measure angle of elevation from the eye to the top of a tree?
a protractor, however, that wouldn't really be used in the real world obviously. However, if you're doing a math problem, and it says that the image is drawn to scale, you can use a protractor to find the angle of elevation.
however, angle of elevation questions are usually solved via trigonometry. So, if possible, look to see if you can apply sin cos or tangent to the question.

How do you find the Angle Of Sun When Tree Is 6.25m And The Shadow Is 10.1m Long?
Use the tangent angle of elevation which works out as 31.7497 degrees to four decimal places
How do you find length of a tree?
Using trigonometry. By measuring a certain distance from the tree and knowing the angle of elevation you can use the tangent ratio: tan = opp (the height of the tree)/adj (the distance) Rearrange the formula: opp = adj*tan
A tree 10 ft tall cast a shadow 12 ft long find the angle elevation of the sun.?
draw yourself a triangle, with a 90* angle at the root of the tree. The sides of the triangle are: The shadow(the base side), the tree (the vertical side) and the distance between the top of the tree and the top of the shadow of the tree (the diagonal side).Then either calculate the diagonal side and solve the puzzle with a sine or directly solve it with a cosine. (You need the angle between the diagonal and base sides)
If a 34-foot tree casts a shadow of 101 feet what is the angle of elevation of the sun?
-67
How can the height of a tree be calculated?
It can easily be measured by using a protractor and measuring the angle between the ground and the top of the tree. You need to know exactly how far you are from the tree. Then you can use trigonometry to calculate the height of the tree. Tan (angle in degrees) = height of tree / distance from tree
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 could you measure the height of a tree at noon when the sun is directly overhead and the tree casts no shadow?
Your best bet here would be to use trigonometry. One stand a given distance away from the tree and sight the top of the tree, say with a clinometer, to measure the angle of elevation. Then knowing the angle and the distance you are from the tree, the height of the tree can be calculated with a tangent function.
How can you find the height of tree?
Using trigonometery if you know the length of its shadow and angle of elevation
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.
A child lies on the ground and looks up at the top of a 14-ft tree nearby. The child is 7 ft away from the tree. What is the angle of elevation from the child to the top of the tree Round to the neare?
Angle of elevation tan^-1(14/7) = 63 degrees rounded
How to measure the height of a tree accurately?
To measure the height of a tree accurately, you can use a clinometer to measure the angle from your eye level to the top of the tree, then measure the distance from the tree to where you are standing. By using trigonometry, you can calculate the height of the tree.
100 ft height tree casts a shadow that is 130 ft long. What is the angle of elevation of the sun?
Angle of elevation: tan-1(100/130) = 37.6 degrees rounded to one decimal place
An observer who is 6 ft tall has an angle of elevation of 60 to the top of a tree and is standing 20 ft from its base How tall is the tree?
ABOUT 2O FEET
How do you measure a living tall tree?
mathematical triangulation. Measure a set distance from the tree, determine the angle from a horizontal plane to the tip of the tree, and that should allow you to calculate the height of the tree.
How do you find the Angle Of Sun When Tree Is 6.25m And The Shadow Is 10.1m Long?
Use the tangent angle of elevation which works out as 31.7497 degrees to four decimal places
What is the instrument to find the circumference of a tree trunk?
A cloth tape / flexible measure.
