In order to estimate the height of a building, two students stand at a certain distance from the building at street level. from

this point, they find the angle of elevation from the street to the top of the building to be 39°. they then move 300 feet closer to the building and find the angle of elevation to be 50°. assuming that the street is level, estimate the height of the building to the nearest foot

Let h represent the height of the building. Then the difference between the two angle measurement locations is
.. h/tan(39°) -h/tan(50°) = 300 ft
.. h = (300 ft)/(1/tan(39°) -1/tan(50°))
.. h ≈ 758 ft

The height of the building is about 758 feet.

HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!
miskamm [114]
Given that < 1 and < 3 are corresponding angles with the same measure, and that < 1 and m < 38 ° are supplementary angles in which their measures add up to 180°:

Then:

m< 1 + m < 38° = 180°

m < 1 = 180° — m < 38°

m < 1 = 142°

Since m < 1 = m < 3, then m < 3 = 142°
