base, b = 45m
angle of elevation, aoe = 82deg
height at 86th floor, h1
height above 86th floor, h2 = 123m
total height, h = h1 + h2
using
tan (aoe) = h1/b
=》 h1 = tan (aoe) × b = tan 82 x 45 = 320.2
h = h1 +h2 = 320.2 + 123 = 443.2m
For this case we have the following system of equations:
Equating both equations we have:
We must find the solutions, for this we factor. We look for two numbers that, when multiplied, result in 4 and when added, result in 5. These numbers are 4 and 1:
Then, the factorized equation is of the form:
Thus, the solutions are:
We look for solutions for the variable "y":
Thus, the system solutions are given by:
