A 23.7-foot tall flagpole casts a 42-foot shadow. What is the angle that the sun hits the flagpole? Express your answer in DMS
1 answer:
Answer:
60.6°
Step-by-step explanation:
Using trigonometry :
Opposite = Height of shadow = 42 feets
Adjacent = height of flagpole = 23.7 feets
Tan θ = opposite / Adjacent
Tan θ = height of shadow / height of flagpole
Tan θ = 42 / 23.7
Tan θ = 1.7721518
θ = tan^-1(1.7721518)
θ = 60.56
θ = 60.6°
