Answer 1

Answer:

height for the building = 551.8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The info given describes the shape of a right triangle.

Thus:

Reference angle = Angle of elevation = 23°

Opposite side = height of the building = ?

Adjacent side = 1,300 ft

Apply trigonometric function, TOA:

Tan 23 = Opp/Adj

Tan 23 = Opp/1,300

1,300 × Tan 23 = Opp

551.817261 = Opp

Opp ≈ 551.8 ft

height for the building = 551.8 ft
