1) Suppose that you are headed toward a plateau 50 meters high. If the angle of elevation to the top of the plateau is 20°, how far are you from the base of the plateau? (Just set up the graph, label all the given information including angles and length of the sides of triangles. Do not solve for the problem)2) Pat needs to determine the height of a tree before cutting it down to be sure that it will not fall on a nearby fence. The angle of elevation of the tree from one position on a flat path from the tree is 30°, and from a second position 40 feet farther along this path it is 20°. What is the height of the tree? (Just set up the graph, label all the given information including angles and length of the sides oftriangles. Do not solve for the problem)
