Question

Solve the question below

Answer 1

Answer:1212.08 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Height of Della=5.5 ft

Height of Tower H=1450

angle of elevation $50^{\circ}$

Effective height of building for Della=1450-5.5=144.5 ft

From the figure we can write

$\tan 50^{\circ}=\dfrac{1444.5}{x}\\x=\dfrac{1444.5}{\tan 50^{\circ}}\\x=1212.079\approx 1212.08\ ft$
