Answer:
B. 147 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
We can easily imagine a right triangle for this problem. The height of the triangle is what we're looking for (x), at the bottom of x, we have the right angle formed by the building and the ground. The other side of that right angle is the distance to the car (300 ft). On top of the x side, we have the angle of 63 degrees looking down, since Craig is looking down by 27 degrees (90 - 27 = 63).
We can easily apply the Law of Sines that says:
Then we can isolate c and fill in the values:
So, we know Craig's eyes are 153 feet above ground... since Craig is 6 feet tall, the balcony sits at 147 feet high (153 - 6 = 147).
