Question 888899
The tower is 27.5 meters tall.

The angle 126 degrees is an angle of depression.

We want to know the angle at a point which is 35 meters away from the base of the tower. The angle we seek is called the angle of elevation. 


We can use a trig function to find the angle.

We know the height of the tower and the how far the needed angle is located.


Use tangent.

Let x be the angle we need.

tan(x) = 27.5/35

Since we are looking for an angle, use the inverse tangent function on your calculator.

x = arctan(27.5/35)

x is approximately 38.16 degrees.
