OH, HI BFF! WHAT A SURPRISE TO MEET YOU HERE IN NEW YORK.
HELLO RYE! IT'S BEEN SO LONG SINCE WE LAST MET.
NEW YORK IS TRULY BEAUTIFUL. BY THE WAY, HAVE YOU SEEN THE FAMOUS STATUE OF LIBERTY?
NOT YET BFF, I WAS ABOUT TO GO THERE. LET'S CHECK IT OUT TOGETHER!
I discovered that the Statue of Liberty is 151 ft. tall in height.
151 ft.
Really? So if you measure the angle of elevation from the tip of that tree, the result will be 61°. What do you think is the distance from the tree to the statue?
x
61°
To find the measure of the x or the adjacent, we will use the formula : x=151ft/61°tan.
161 ft.
x= 83.70 ft.
Good thing, I brought a calculator! After following the formula, the answer is x= 83.70. Therefore, the distance from tree to the statue is 83.70.
61°
THANKS FOR ACCOMPAN-YING ME TODAY BFF. I LEARNED A LOT OF THINGS.
SURE BFF, LET'S VISIT THE STATUE OF LIBERTY TOGETHER AGAIN NEXT TIME!
