Question

a 50 foot building casts an 50 foot shadow . what is the angle that the sun ts the building ?

Answer 1

Hi ,

Height of the building = h = 50 ft

Length of the shadow = s = 50 ft

Let the angle = x°

tan x ° = p / s

tan x° = 50 / 50

tan x° = 1

= tan 45°

Therefore ,

x = 45°

I hope this helps you.
