The angle of elevation from the hiker to the park ranger is the same as the angle of depression from the ranger to the hiker, 29°.

The tangent function of an angle is the ratio of the opposite side (500') to the adjacent side (x) in the right triangle shown. That is
tan(29°) = 500' / x

Multiplying the equation by x/tan(29°) gives
x = 500' / tan(29°)
x ≈ 500' / 0.5543
x ≈ 902 ft

Answer:

d. May result in the TSLS being inconsistent in large samples

Step-by-step explanation:

Two-stage least squares (TSLS), regression analysis is a statistical technique that is used for two distinct stages of variables regression, so, when there are more relevant instruments than required, is like having a larger sample size in that the more information is available for use in the Instrumental Variables regression (IV).
