The horizontal distance between two towers is 70m. The angle of depression of the top of the first tower when seen from the top of the second tower is 30°. If the height of the second tower is 120m, find the height of the first tower.
1 answer:
As shown in the image, we have a 30 degree angle and x, which is what we want. By doing tan30, we can find x, so tan30=x/70 and 70*tan30=x= 70*sqrt(3)/3. 120-x=height of first tower = 120-(70*sqrt(3)/3) = roughly 79.59

Answer:
- 30 cud be the answer for the question, I'm not really sure
4.the dot would be on 1 1/2 and the x would be pointing toward the negative numbers
The estimate is about 15.60
