Answer:
16.76°
Step-by-step explanation:
In ΔVWX, the measure of ∠X=90°, WX = 8.3 feet, and XV = 2.5 feet.
We want to find the measure of <W.
We know side length that is adjacent and opposite to <W.
We can use the tangent ratio, to find the measure of <W.
The tangent ratio is opposite over hypotenuse.
Take tangent inverse to get:
Answer:
49.4 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
In Triangle AXY,
We want to determine the angle of elevation from the point Vera is standing to the top of the flagpole, which is the angle at V in the diagram.
In Triangle XVY
|VY|=36 feet
Therefore, the angle of elevation from the point Vera is standing to the top of the flagpole is 49.4 degree to the nearest tenth of a degree.
