The angle here is an acute angle at ground level.  Then the side adjacent to this angle is 126 feet.  The opp. side is the tower, 111 feet tall.

Then   

tan theta = opp / adj = 111 / 126.  Using the inverse tangent function, we find that the measure of the angle is 0.722 radian or 41 degrees (to the nearest degree).

What is the relationship between the ratios? 16/72 and 8/32 Drag and drop to complete the statement. The ratios are . proportion
Yuki888 [10]
These ratios are not proportional.

Explanation:

If the ratio 8:32 were simplified, it would equal 1:4 because they can both be divided by 8. But since 16 x 4 does not equal 72, they cannot be divided by 4 to make a simplified ratio such as the first example.

Hope I helped, and good luck!
