Let x ft be the length of the ladder, then the distance from the ground to the top of it will be x-1 ft.
If the distance from the bottom of the ladder to the building is 3 ft, then we can apply Pythagoras:
x² = (x-1)² + 3² . Expand:
x² = x² - 2x + 1 + 9
x² = x² - 2x + 10
x² - x² = - 2x + 10
0 = - 2x + 10
2x = 10 and x = 5 ft
Answer:
A. 61.82°;
15.64°
B. 33.37°
Step-by-step explanation:
A.
✍️Angle of elevation from 15 ft:
A right triangle is formed. Apply trigonometric ratios formula to find the angle of elevation from 15 ft.
Thus,
Length of the side Opposite to reference angle = 22 + 6 = 28 ft
Adjacent length = 15 ft
Thus, we would have:



(2 d.p)
✍️Angle of elevation from 100 ft:
Thus,
Length of the side Opposite to reference angle = 22 + 6 = 28 ft
Adjacent length = 100 ft
Thus, we would have:



(2 d.p)
B.
✍️Distance you'd be from the screen if you lie on the ground and make an angle of elevation of 40° to the top of the screen:
Adjacent length = your distance from the screen = x
Opposite length = 22 + 6 = 28 ft
Angle of elevation = 40°
Tge trigonometric ratios formula to use would be:

Plug in the values

Multiply both sides by x

Divide both sides by tan(40)
