Given :

Distance of firefighter from the building, D = 33 feet.

Height of building, h = 45 feet.

To Find :

The angle of elevation of the cat.

Solution :

Let, angle of elevation is Ф.

We know, tan Ф = h/D

tan Ф = 45/33

Ф = tan⁻¹( 45/33 )

Ф = 53.75°

Therefore, angle of elevation is 53.75° .

Hence, this is the required solution.

If two angles are adjacent and have a sum of 180, then they are?
cupoosta [38]

They are most likely 90 degrees, due to the sharing of a common side and a common vertex. They really could be anything though. If given more details, I will give a better answer. I still would like Brainliest, however.
