Question

The angle of elevation of the top of the building from two points p and q on the ground level ground on the same side of the building are 62 degree and 28 degree respectively.if the distances of the points p and q from the base of the building 12m and 27 m respectively , find the height of the building

Answer 1

Answer:

we would apply tan 62 degree= h/12

1.88 = h / 12 m

h= 1.88*12

=22.56 m

or we can also apply tan 28 degree that would be equal to

h/27

0.531*27= h
