Presentation Transcript

  1. Yosemite Falls in California has three sections; the Upper Fall, Middle Cascade, and the lower Fall. From a bridge ½ mile away from the falls, the angles of elevation to the top and bottom of the Upper Yosemite Fall are 44.72 degrees and 23.81 degrees respectively. How high is Upper Fall section and the total series of all three falls?

  2. Yosemite Falls in California has three sections; the Upper Fall, Middle Cascade, and the lower Fall. From a bridge ½ mile away from the falls, the angles of elevation to the top and bottom of the Upper Yosemite Fall are 44.72 degrees and 23.81 degrees respectively. How high is the total series of all three falls?

  3. Challenge Problem #1

  4. Challenge Problem #2 A twenty foot ladder leans up against a perpendicular wall and just touches the outer top edge of a 6'x6'x6' cube packing case pushed up close to the wall. How far up the wall is the top of the ladder?
