Question

A building casts a shadow that is 250 ft long. The angle of elevation
from the tip of the shadow to the top of the building is 43°. Find the
height of the building to the nearest foot.

Answer 1

tan 43° = height/250

solve for "height"

Answer 2

Tan43 = height/250
250(tan43) = height
height = 233 ft (nearest foot)
