Question

the leaning tower of pisa in italy makes an angle of 86 degrees with the ground. a person standing on the ground approximately 82 feet from the tower at an angle of 69 degrees. how tall is the tower?

Answer 1

See the picture to better understand the problem

we know that
in the triangle ABC
∠A+∠B+∠C=180°
∠C=180-(86+69)-----> ∠C=25°
Applying the law of sines
b/sin B=c/sin C------> b=c*sin B/sin C-----> b=82*sin 69/sin 25
b=181.14 ft

the answer is
181.14 ft
