Jessica stands 150 feet from the base of a tall building. She measures the angle from her eye to the top of the building to e 84
degrees. If her eye level is 5 feet above the ground, how tall is the building?
1 answer:
This is an angle of elevation problem. So, we use the tangent ratio.
tan84=x/150
this then becomes
x=150(tan84)
which simplifies to
150∗(tan84)=1427
Since she only begins to observe the building 5 feet higher than where it starts, we add 5+1427, so your final answer is 1432 feet tall!
