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 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.
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°
Find the angle of elevation of the sun when a flagpole 22.5 m high casts a shadow 34 m long?
Use the tangent ratio: tan = 22.5/34 = 45/68 tan-1(45/68) = 33.49518467 degrees Angle of elevation = 33o29'42.66''
Which is the definition of an exterior angle of a triangle?
an angle that forms a linear pair with one of the interior angles of the triangle.
What is the difference between angle of Elevation and angle of Depression?
Angle of elevation is looking upwards to an object and angle of depression is looking downwards to an object
Which type of objectives have angle of elevation?
The angle of elevation is looking at an object above your line of sight.
What is the relationship between angle and distance?
distance and angle of elevation are closely related as the more closer you move, the half is the angle of elevation. for e.g. if you travel 30m and cover 15m then, the angle of elevation will be half of what you started with. this can be also proved by a live example as when you have the angle of elevation as 90 degree, then the distance can be zero....
What does angle of depression in geometry mean?
It is the alternate angle to the angle of elevation
What is the relationship between the angle of elevation and the highest point?
If the base of the elevation is at a distance d from the observer, then the highest point is at a height = d*tan(angle of elevation)
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
What instrument measures angle of elevation and angle of depression?
A sextant.
What is the definition of elevation profile?
the change in elevation changes on record.
How do you interpret first and third angle projection?
The front elevation is in the centre in both projections. In 1st angle projection the end elevation is on the opposite side of the front elevation and the plan view is below the front elevation. In 3rd angle projection the plan view is above the front elevation and the end elevations are on the same side as viewed
How is the angle of elevation affected as the plane flies closer to the person?
The angle of elevation is increased as the plane flies closer because of the decreasing distance.
How do you find the adjacent side of the angle of elevation of a right triangle if you have the angle of elevation and height?
i dont care about math even though i use it.
What is the definition of critical angle?
The definition of critical angle is the angle of incidence that refraction can still occur.
