From the top of the Eiffel Tower, a jogger is spotted heading toward the tower. At 2 pm, the angle of depression of the jogger (4) was measured to be 37°. Four minutes later, (B), when measured again, the angle of depression had increased by 35°. Find the average speed of the jogger to the nearest foot 37 35 986 per minute. A
