Sparky the Bear is atop a 100 foot tower. He is looking out over a fairly level area for careless people who might start fires.

Suddenly, he sees a fire starting. He marks down the direction of the fire, but he also needs to know how far away the tower is from the fire.

The distance of sparky to the fire is 99.445 feet

<h3>Application of SOH CAH TOA identity</h3>

Given the following parameters

The angle of depression = 6  degrees

If Sparky is looking over the fairly level, hence the hypotenuse is 100 foot

Required

Distance from spark tower to the fire

Using the expression below

Cos 6 = D/100

D = 100cos6

D = 100(0.9945)
D = 99.45foot

Hence the distance of sparky to the fire is 99.445 feet
