Question 1157151
The angle of elevation to the top of a building in Baltimore is found to be 4 degrees from the ground at a distance of 1 mile or 5,280 feet from the base of the building. Using this information, find the height of the building in feet. Round your answer to the nearest foot.
<pre>Let height of building be x
Then we get: {{{matrix(3,3, tan (4^o), "=", O/A,
tan (4^o), "=", x/"5,280",
x, "=", "5,280" * tan (4^o))}}} 
Height of building, or {{{highlight_green(matrix(1,7, x, "=", "369.2135671,", rounded, to, 369, feet))}}}
