Question

Juan is looking up to the top of a tree that is 31 feet tall. He is standing 20 feet from the tree as
shown in the diagram below.
24 feet
20 feet
7 feet
What is the angle of elevation to the nearest degree of Juan's line of sight to the top of the tree?
O 33 degrees
o 40 degrees
O 50 degrees
57 degrees

Answer 1

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

if you dividde 24 by 20 you get 1.2 if you plug 1.2 into an inverse tangent calculator you get 50.19

Answer 2

The angle of elevation to the nearest degree of Juan's line of sight to the top of the tree is 50.19.

What are trigonometric functions?

Trigonometric functions are the functions that include trigonometric identities such as sine, cosine, tangents, secant, and, cot.

Juan is looking up to the top of a tree that is 31 feet tall. He is standing 20 feet from the tree.

The angle of elevation to the nearest degree of Juan's line of sight to the top of the tree.

Tan Ф = perpendicular/ base

          = 24/ 20

Tan Ф  = 1.2

Ф  =$( Tan )^{-1}1.2$

Ф  = 50.19
