you sight a rock climber on a cliff at a 32° angle of elevation. your eye level is 5.5 feet above the ground and you are 1000 fe
1 answer:
Answer:
630 feets
Step-by-step explanation:
From the triangle attached :
Using trigonometry, the height h, which is the height of climber to your eye level :
Tan θ = opposite / Adjacent
Tan 32 = h / 1000
h = tan 32 * 1000
h = 0.6248693 * 1000
h = 624.86935
Height from the ground :
624.86935 + 5.5
= 630.369 feets
= 630 feet
