You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If bottom angle 23° 46' is measure B
\n" ); document.write( "and top angle 5° 16' is measure T
\n" ); document.write( "(The assigning B and the T very helpful because too many characters to write or type before finishing!)
\n" ); document.write( "x, length from point to bottom at center of hill
\n" ); document.write( "y, the height of hill\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Then when you draw and label the description, you may make these:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"system%28y%2Fx=tan%28B%29%2Ctan%28T%2BB%29=%28y%2B45%29%2Fx%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "...and solve....\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "On the way find \"y=%2845tan%28B%29%29%2F%28tan%28T%2BB%29-tan%28B%29%29\";
\n" ); document.write( "Now, substitute and evaluate y.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
