Answer:
∠Q = 53.13 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that ∆PQR, ∠P = 90degrees , this means that the triangle is a right angled triangle
Hence using the notation
SOH CAH TOA
where S is sine, C is cosine, T is tangent and O, A and H represents the size of the opposite, adjacent and hypotenuse sides
Considering ∠Q and the given sides
PR=16cm is the opposite side,
PQ= 12 cm is the adjacent side hence we use TOA
Tan Q = 16/12 =
Q = Arc tan 16/12
= 53.13 degrees
Draw a right triangle to represent the problem.
The vertical height of the triangle is 9 ft, and it represents the tree.
The horizontal length, at the bottom of the tree is ground level and has a length of 13 ft.
Let x = angle of elevation.
By definition,
tan x = 9/13 = 0.6923
x = arctan(0.6923) = 34.7 deg. = 35 deg (approx)
Answer: 35°
