Tracking a Satellite The path of a satellite orbiting the earth causes the satellite to pass directly over two tracking stations A and B, which are 50 mi apart. When the satellite is on one side of the two stations, the angles of elevation at A and B are measured to be 87.0 and 84.2 respectively. a How far is the satellite from station A? b How high is the satellite above the ground?
Height of a Flagpole Two people decide to estimate the height of a flagpole. One person positions himself due north of the pole and the other person stands due cast of the pole. If the two people are the same distance from the pole and 25 feet from each other, find the height of the pole if the angle of elevation from the ground to the top of the pole at each persons position is 56 (Figure 21). Figure 21
The Learning Tower of Pisa The bell tower of the cathedral in Pisa, Italy, leans 5.6 from the vertical. A tourist stands 105 m from its base, with the tower leaning directly toward her. She measures the angle of elevation to the top of the tower to be 29.2. Find the length of the tower to the nearest meter.
Flying kites A boy is flying two kites at the same time. he has 380ft of line out to one kite and 420ft to the other. He estimates the angle between the two lines to be 30. Approximate the distance between the kites.
Towing a Barge Two tugboats that are 120ft apart pull a barge, as shown. If the length of one cable is 212ft and the length of the other is 230ft, find the angle formed by the two cables.
Leaning Windmill After a wind storm, a farmer notices that his 32-foot windmill may be leaning, but he is not sure. From a point on the ground 31 feet from the base of the windmill, he finds that the angle of elevation to the top of the windmill is 48. Is the windmill leaning? If so, what is the acute angle the windmill makes with the ground?
Leaning Ladder A 20-ft ladder is leaning against a building. If the base of the ladder is 6 ft from the base of the building, what is the angle of elevation of the ladder? How high does the ladder reach on the building?
Height of a Building From a point A on the ground, the angle of elevation to the top of a tall building is 24.1. From a point B, which is 600 ft closer to the building, the angle of elevation is measured to be 30.2. Find the height of the building.
Distance A passenger in an airplane at an altitude of 10 kilometers sees two towns directly to the east of the plane. The angles of depression to the towns are 28 and 55 (see figure). How far apart are the towns?
Angle of Elevation A man standing near a building notices that the angle of elevation to the top of the building is 64. He then walks 240 ft farther away from the building and finds the angle of elevation to the top to be 43. How tall is the building?
Guy Wire A guy wire runs from the ground to a cell tower. The wire is attached to the cell tower 150 feet above the ground. The angle formed between the wire and the ground is 43 (see figure). (a) How long is the guy wire? (b) How far from the base of the tower is the guy wire anchored to the ground?
