Ex. A surveyor is standing 50 feet from the base of a large tree. The surveyor measures the angle of elevation to the top of the tree as 71.5°. How tall is the tree? tan 71.5° ? tan 71.5° 71.5° y = 50 (tan 71.5°) 50 y = 50 (2.98868)
Ex. 5 A person is 200 yards from a river. Rather than walk directly to the river, the person walks along a straight path to the river’s edge at a 60° angle. How far must the person walk to reach the river’s edge? cos 60° x (cos 60°) = 200 200 60° x x X = 400 yards
