a pole 70 ft. high casts a shadow of 27 ft. long.
\n" ); document.write( " find the angle of elevation of the sun.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Use the tangent of the angle where,
\n" ); document.write( "Side opposite = 70
\n" ); document.write( "side adjacent = 27
\n" ); document.write( "tan(A) = \"70%2F27\"
\n" ); document.write( "tan(A) = 2.5923
\n" ); document.write( "find the arcTan
\n" ); document.write( "A = 68.91 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
