Answer:
121
Step-by-step explanation:
you can either set up a proportion or a table (i inserted a picture for both ways!) After setting up a table you would calculate how much it is to get from 2.5 to 27.5 (so you divide 27.5/2.5) to get 11. Then you move to the y side of the table where you would have to multiply 11×11 to get your answer (which is 121)

Answer:
389 feets apart
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Building A
Height = 400feets
Angle of elevation = 70°
Building B:
Height = 300 feets
Angle of elevation = 52°
Distance from the foot of building A to where Jonny is standing = x (see attached picture)
Using trigonometry :
Tanθ = opposite / Adjacent
Tan 70 = 400/ x
2.7474774x = 400
x = 145.58809 feets
Distance from the foot of building B to where Jonny is standing = y (see attached picture)
Using trigonometry :
Tanθ = opposite / Adjacent
Tan 52 = 300/ y
1.2799416y = 300
y = 145.59
y = 234.38568 feets
x + y = distance between the two buildings
(145.58809 + 234.38568) feets
= 379.97377
= 380 feets apart
