a man 1.83m tall, stands al a distance of 14.8m away from the base of a tower. he discovers that the angle of elevation of the top of the tower is 63 calculate the height of the tower.

Answer 1

Draw a diagram. If h is the height of the tower, then
(h-1.83)/14.8 = tan63°
Now just solve for h

Answer 2

h=30.88m

Answer 3

54

Answer 4

Bring the solution to the question

Answer 5

A man 1.83m tall stands at a distance of 14.8m away from the base of a tower .he discovers that the angle of elevation of the top of the tower is 63.calculate the height of the tower

Answer 6

14.8 tan 63= opp
29.0466= opp
Total H = opp + man's height
Total H = 29.05 + 1.83
= 30.88m
