From the top of the person's head,
\n" ); document.write( "the monument is still \"+405+\" ft away
\n" ); document.write( "but the height is \"+795+\" ft so that
\n" ); document.write( "I have a right triangle.
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "let \"+alpha+\" = the angle of elevation
\n" ); document.write( "\"+tan%28+alpha+%29+=+795+%2F+405+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+tan%28+alpha+%29+=+1.963+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+alpa+=+arc+tan+%28+1.963+%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+alpha+=+63.005+\"
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------
\n" ); document.write( "The angle of elevation is 63 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "You might want a 2nd opinion too
