- Mast
The mast has 16 a long shadow on a slope rising from the mast foot in the direction of the shadow angle at angle 9.7°. Determine the height of the mast if the sun above the horizon is at an angle 40°48'.
- Powerplant chimney
From the building window at the height of 7.5 m, we can see the top of the factory chimney at an altitude angle of 76° 30 ′. We can see the chimney base from the same place at a 5° 50 ′ depth angle. How tall is the chimney?
- A construction
A construction worker is trying to find the height of a skyrise building. He is standing some distance away from the base with an elevation angle of 65 degrees. The worker moves 50 feet closer and measures the angle of elevation to be 75 degrees. Find the
- Two boats
Two boats are located from a height of 150m above the lake's surface at depth angles of 57° and 39°. Find the distance of both boats if the sighting device and both ships are in a plane perpendicular to the lake's surface.
- Tourist 39691
How far from the lookout tower, 48 m high, did the tourist stand if he saw its top at an angle of 40°?
- Black diamond run
Taleah is skiing down a black diamond run. She begins skiing at the top of a ski trail whose elevation is about 8625 feet. The ski run ends toward the base of the mountain at 3800 feet. The horizontal distance between these two points is about 4775 feet.
- Chauncey
Chauncey is building a storage bench for his son's playroom. The storage bench will fit into the corner and against two walls to form a triangle. Chauncy wants to buy a triangular-shaped cover for the bench. Suppose the storage bench is 2 1/2 ft along one
- A truck
A truck departs from a distribution center. From there, it goes 20km west, 30km north and 10km west and reaches a shop. How can the truck reach back to the distribution center from the shop (what is the shortest path)?
- Measurements 8129
The plane flies at an altitude of 22.5 km to the observatory. At the time of the first measurement, it was seen at an elevation angle of 28° and during the second measurement at an elevation angle of 50°. Calculate the distance it flies between these two
- Altitude angles
Cities A, B, and C lie in one elevation plane. C is 50 km east of B, and B is north of A. C is deviated by 50° from A. The plane flies around places A, B, and C at the same altitude. When the aircraft is flying around B, its altitude angle to A is 12°. Fi
- River
Calculate how many permille river Hudson average falls, if on section long 952 km flowing water from 1231 m AMSL to 131 m AMSL.
- Aircraft
From the aircraft flying at an altitude of 500m, they observed places A and B (at the same altitude) in the direction of flight at depth angles alpha = 48° and beta = 35°. What is the distance between places A and B?
- Position 19113
The column is fixed in a vertical position by 3 ropes, which are caught at the height of 3 m above the ground. The other ends of the ropes are anchored to the ground at a distance of 4 m from the base of the column. How much rope was used to secure the po
- Altitude angle
In complete winds-free weather, the balloon took off and remained standing exactly above the place from which it took off. It is 250 meters away from us. How high did the balloon fly when we saw it at an altitude angle of 25°?
- Railway
The railway line climbs 8 permille between points A and B, whose horizontal distance is 1.5 km. It climbs 14 permille between points B and C, which have a horizontal distance of 900 m. Calculate the differences in altitudes between points A and C.
- Perpendicular 22931
How far apart would two passenger cars be after 2 hours of driving if they left the same garage on two perpendicular paths, one going at 82 km/h and the other at 104 km/h?
- Horizontal 83362
The observer sees the plane at an elevation angle of 35° (angle from the horizontal plane). At that moment, the plane reported an altitude of 4 km. How far from the observer is the place over which the aircraft flies? They circled for hundreds of meters.
- Observation tower
At the top of the hill, there is a 30-meter-high observation tower. We can see its heel and shelter from a certain point in the valley at elevation angles a=28°30" and b=30°40". How high is the top of the hill above the horizontal plane of the observation
- Three pillars
On a straight road, three pillars are 6 m high at the same distance of 10 m. At what angle of view does Vlado see each pillar if it is 30 m from the first and his eyes are 1.8 m high?
- Pythagorean 81883
Hello, I have a problem calculating the height on side z in the general triangle XYZ, where z=4 cm, x=1.5 cm, and y=3.7 cm. It was assigned in 8th grade when discussing the Pythagorean theorem. Thank you.
