Question

Kayson is looking at two buildings, building A and building B, at an angle of elevation of 73' Building A is 30 feet away, and building Bis 35 feet away. Which building

is taller and by approximately how many feet?

Building A, it is around 16 35 feet taller than building B

Building At is around 114 48 feet taller than building B

Building B, it is around 16 35 feet taller than building A

Building B, it is around 114 48 feet taller than building A

Answer 1

Answer:

Building B, it is around 16 35 feet taller than building A ( C )

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculating  the height of Building A

Height = opposite ( ? )

∅ = 73°

base/adjacent  = 30 ft

∴ Height = Tan 73° * base

               = 3.2709 * 30 =  98.127 ft

Calculating the height of building B

∅ = 73°

base/adjacent  = 35 ft

∴ height = Tan 73° * base

              = 3.2709 * 35 = 114.4815

Therefore we can say Building B is Taller by approximately 16.35 feet
