Question

11) A building casts a shadow of 100 feet. The angle of elevation from the end of the shadow to the top of the

Answer 1

Answer:

≈ 27 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

using the tangent ratio in the right triangle formed by the building and the ground.

tan15° = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ = $\frac{?}{100}$ ( multiply both sides by 100 )

100 × tan15° = ? , then

? ≈ 27 ft ( to the nearest whole number )
