A cellular telephone tower that is 100 feet tall is placed on top of a mountain that is 1300 feet above sea level. What is the angle of depression from the top of the tower to a cell phone user who is 7 horizontal miles away and 300 feet above sea level?

Angle of depression from top of the tower is 88.29°

Explanation:

The height of tower = 100 feet.

The height of mountain above sea level = 1300 feet.

So the total vertical height of tower = 100 feet + 1300 feet = 1400 feet.

The horizontal distance of cell phone user from tower = 7 miles = (7 * 5280) feet = 36960 feet.

The vertical distance of cell phone user from sea level = 300 feet.

The vertical height of cell phone user from the top of the tower = (1400 - 300) feet = 1100 feet.

Let the angle of depression from top of tower be ' ∅ ' .

Here we can see that a right angle triangle is formed with base = 1100 feet and perpendicular side = 36960 feet.

We know that ,

tan∅ = = 33.6

∅ = 33.6

∅ = 88.29°

So the angle of depression from the top of the tower is 88.29°.

the first american roller coaster was the mauch chunk switchback railway, built in the mountains of pennsylvania in the mid-1800s. the track, originally built to send coal to a railway, was reconfigured as a "scenic tour."

adding a(n) to an electric circuit would increase the magnetic field around a wire;

b. solenoid

a solenoid is a type of electromagnet whose purpose is to generate a controlled magnetic field.

if the purpose of the solenoid is instead to impede changes in the electric current, a solenoid can be more specifically classified as an inductor rather than an electromagnet.
