Question

Solve the question below

Answer 1

Answer:1212.08 ft

Explanation:

Given

Height of Della=5.5 ft

Height of Tower H=1450

angle of elevation
`50^(\circ)`

Effective height of building for Della=1450-5.5=144.5 ft

From the figure we can write

`\tan 50^(\circ)=(1444.5)/(x)\\x=(1444.5)/(\tan 50^(\circ))\\x=1212.079\approx 1212.08\ ft`
