Question

PLEASE HELP FAST!!! A ladder leans against a building. The top of the ladder reaches a point on the building, which is 18 feet above the ground. The foot of the ladder is 7 feet from the building. Find the measure of the angle of elevation from the ground to the top of the ladder.

Answer 1

The measure of the angle of elevation from the ground to the top of the ladder is 68.73 degrees

Angle of elevation and depression

These method is used to determine the side and angles of a triangle

From the question given, we have the following parameters

Base of the building = 7feet (Adjacent side)

Height of the building = 18 feet (Opposite side)

Required

angle of elevation of the building

Using the SOH CAH TOA identity

tanФ = opp/adj

tanФ = 18/7

Ф = 68.73 degrees

Hence the measure of the angle of elevation from the ground to the top of the ladder is 68.73 degrees
