Question 787027: From a point 35m from a building and 2m above the ground,the angle of elevation of the top of the building is observed to be 60degrees. What is the height of the building? Answer by harpazo(655) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Use tangent = opposite side over adjacent side
tan60 = h/35
Let h be height
After finding h, add 2m to find total height of building.
Is this clear?
