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.

What is the equation of the line in slope-intercept form?
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

equation: y = -6x -20

Step-by-step explanation:

pass (0,-20) (-10,40)

y = mx + b

y intercept (b) = -20

slope (m) = (40 - -20) / (-10 - 0) = 60 / -10 = - 6

equation: y = -6x -20
