Question 83608: guy wire is attached to the top of an antenna and to a point on level ground that is 50 ft from base of antenna. if wire makes a 66 degree angle with ground. what is approx height of antenna to nearest ft? Answer by dolly(163) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The scenario forms a right triangle whose base is 50 ft and the angle of inclination is 66 degree.
In this case, tan 66 = opp/adj
= ht of antenna/base
2.246 = ht of antenna/50
Ht of antenna = 50 x 2.246
= 112.3
