Answer:
Hence the ground distance is about 889m between stadium and Tennis court.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
A pilot at height of 125 m(flying the advertising blimp)
angle of depression=8 degrees.
To find :
The ground distance stadium and tennis court.
Solution :
Using Trigonometric Function we can solve it ,
(Refer the attachment for fig)
Considering above data we get a triangle(ABC)
with point A represent pilot position and C court position and B as stadium.
The height AB=125 m
angle of depression= 8 degrees.
Using
<em>tan∅ =AB/BC</em>
tan(8)=125/BC
BC=125/tan(8)
=125/0.14054
=889.2
=889 m
Hence the ground distance is about 889m between stadium and Tennis court.
