Answer:

70.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for the ladder's angle of elevation, we solve using the Trigonometric function of Cosine

= cos θ = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

Where

Adjacent = Distance of the base from the house = 10ft

Hypotenuse = Length of the ladder = 30 ft

cos θ = 10/30

cos θ = 1/3

θ = arc cos 1/3

θ = 70.528779366

Approximately = 70.5°

Therefore, the ladder's angle of elevation is 70.5°

Answer: C) 163

Step-by-Step Solution:

In the Right Triangle formed to the extreme right, lets mark the angles as
∠1, ∠2 and ∠3.

Therefore, from the Figure :-

∠1 = 73°
∠2 = 90°

By Angle Sum Property :-

∠3 = 180 - (73 + 90)
∠3 = 180 - 163
=> ∠3 = 17°

The Angle which forms a Linear Pair with ∠3 is the Corresponding Angle of ∠r, and Corresponding Angles are Equal.

Therefore,
=> 180 - ∠3
= 180 - 17
=> 163°

Therefore, the Angle that forms the Linear Pair with ∠3 is 163°

This Angle is Corresponding to ∠r and hence they are Equal ie. ∠r = 163°

Hence, ∠r = 163°
