Question

Two buildings on level ground are 120 m and
85 m tall respectively. Given that the angle of
elevation of the top of the taller building from
the top of the shorter building is 33.9°, find the
distance between the two buildings.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

52.1 m.  

Step-by-step explanation:  

tan 33.9° =  

tan 33.9=35/adj  

0.6719=35/adj  

adj=35/0.6719  

adj=52.1 m  

hence the distance between two buildings is 52.1 m.
