What is the distance from a point on the ground at an angle of elevation of 9 degrees to a hot air balloon that is 150m above the ground?
Using trigonometry and the sine ratio the distance is 959 meters to the nearest meter.
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.
How tall is a person that casts a 9 foot shadow?
Depends on the time of day (the angle of the sun). Think of the person as being at a right angle to the ground, and the shadow being the other side. The distance from the person's head to the end of the shadow is the hypotenuse. (a^2 + b^2= c^2) a= height of person, b= shadow. If you have the angle of the sun to the ground, you can use Sine/ Cosine to calculate the length.
What is the angle of elevation to the nearest degree of the sun if a 54 foot flagpole casts a shadow 74 feet long?
36 degrees
How high is the building whose shadow 45 meters when the angle of elevation of the sun is 62 degree 30 degree?
Suppose the length of the shadow is s metres. Then tan(62 deg) = 45/S so that S = 45/tan(62 deg) = 45/1.88 (approx = 23.93 metres, approx.
How do you find the elevation of the sun?
WARNING: Do not, under any conditions, look at the sun, directly or indirectly.The find the elevation of the sun, measure the angle that an object's shadow from the sun makes. One way to do this is with a stick in the ground. Assuming the stick is perpendicular to the ground, the ratio of the stick's length to the shadow's length is the tangent of the angle of elevation. Solve for inverse tangent, and you have the angle.
The top of a billboard is 40 feet above the ground What is the angle of elevation of the sun when the billboard casts a 30 foot shadow on level ground?
tan-1(40/30) = 53.13° Therefore, the sun is at a 53.13° angle of elevation.
What is the angle of elevation of the sun when a woman 1.5 meters tall casts a shadow of 2.9 meter shadow?
It is: 27.35 degrees rounded to two decimal places
If a tree casts a shadow of fifteen meters long how tall is the tree?
Not enough information has been given to solve this problem such as: What is the angle of elevation?
Suppose you know the height of a flagpole on the beach of the Chesapeake Bay and that you know the length of its shadow How do you calculate the angle of elevation?
If you also know its shadow then you can work out the angle of elevation
What is the angle of elevation to the sun when a tree 6 m high cast a shadow of 4.8 m on level ground?
51.34019175 degrees or as 51o20'24.69''
what is the angle of elevation of the sun when a flagpole 22.5 m high casts a shadow 32.4 m long?
If we assume the the flagpole makes a 90 degree angle with the ground, then the angle of elevator for the sun is 34.778°
What is the Angle of elevation of Qutub Minar when you are at a distance of 5metre using trigonometry?
If you are looking for the angle of elevation from the ground to the top of Qutub Minar, here is a solution. Qutub Minar is 72.5 meters tall. The angle of elevation would equal arctan(72.5/5). It comes out to approximately 86.05 degrees.
The tallest free-standing structure in the world is the 553 meter high CN Tower in Toronto What will be the length of the shaddow of the tower on a day that the angle of 50?
To find the length of the shadow of the CN Tower when the angle of elevation is 50 degrees, you can use the tangent function. The formula is: shadow length = height / tan(angle). Thus, the shadow length would be approximately 553 meters / tan(50°), which is about 553 meters / 1.1918, resulting in a shadow length of approximately 464 meters.
When the angle of elevation to the sun is 52 degrees a tree casts a shadow that is 9 meters long what is the height of the tree?
It is: tan(52)*9 = 11.519 meters rounded to three decimal places
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
What is the distance from a point on the ground at an angle of elevation of 9 degrees to a hot air balloon that is 150m above the ground?
Using trigonometry and the sine ratio the distance is 959 meters to the nearest meter.
