A firefighter is standing 33 feet away from a 45 foot tall building. The firefighter looks up and sees that a cat that is stuck on the top of the building and also notices a dog in a second flooor window that is 15 feet above ground. What is the angle of elevation of the cat?

Given :

Distance of firefighter from the building, D = 33 feet.

Height of building, h = 45 feet.

To Find :

The angle of elevation of the cat.

Solution :

Let, angle of elevation is Ф.

We know, tan Ф = h/D

tan Ф = 45/33

Ф = tan⁻¹( 45/33 )

Ф = 53.75°

Therefore, angle of elevation is 53.75° .

Hence, this is the required solution.

y=x+9
