Question 1202344: the angle of elevation of the top of a building from a point is 30m away from the building is 65° how high is the building?
Answer by math_tutor2020(3817) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
h = unknown height of the building
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(65) = h/30
h = 30*tan(65)
h = 64.3352076
Your calculator needs to be in degree mode.
Answer: 64.3352076 meters approximately
