Question 10. A tree 38 feet high casts a shadow 75 feet long. Find the measure of the angle of elevation of the sun. *

Respuesta :

Answer:

26.9 degrees to the nearest tenth.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height  = opposite side and length of the shadow = the adjacent side, so we use the tangent function.

If the angle of elevation  is x degrees, then

tan x = 38/75

x =  26.9 degrees.
