Ninety seconds later, the angle between the road and your line of sight to the tower is 31 degree. At that moment, how far is the tower?

Distance traveled from the \"matrix%281%2C2%2C+19%5Eo-angle-of-elevation%2C+point%29\" to the \"matrix%281%2C2%2C+31%5Eo-angle-of-elevation%2C+point%29\" =  
\n" ); document.write( "Using this distance and its opposite angle (\"12%5Eo\"), we see that the distance from the \"matrix%281%2C2%2C+31%5Eo-angle-of-elevation%2C+point%29\" to the top of the tower is 2.896908 miles
\n" ); document.write( "Using this length, and the \"31%5Eo\" angle, we find that the distance from the \"matrix%281%2C2%2C+31%5Eo-angle-of-elevation%2C+point%29\" to the base of the tower is: \"highlight_green%28matrix%281%2C2%2C+2.483135%2C+miles%29%29\" \n" ); document.write( "
