A boy 1.65m tall observes that the angle of elevation of the top of a tower 18.5m away
\n" ); document.write( "is 38°. Calculate the height of the tower.
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "tan(38) = h/18.5
\n" ); document.write( "Add the boy's height (should be eye level)
\n" ); document.write( "h = 18.5*tan(38) + 1.65 meters
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
