Question

Help ASAP, Which said expression can be used to calculate the angle of elevation from Isabella to the tallest drop of the roller coaster

Answer 1

θ = Tan^-1(456 / 2640)

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between Isabella and base of the roller coaster = 2640 = opposite

Height = 456 = adjacent

Using Pythagoras,

The angle of elevation could be obtained taking the appropriate cosine, tangent or Sine of the ratio of the two. Sides Given.

Using the appropriate rule :

Tan θ = opposite / Adjacent

Hence,

Tan θ = 456 / 2640

Where, θ = angle of elevation

θ = Tan^-1(456 / 2640)
