Given:
Angle of depression made by Olivia is 34 degree to see the dog walking on the street from window 25 feet above the ground.
Required:
How far is the dog from building?
Explanation:
We will first draw labeled diagram
Now, we use trigonometric ratio
[tex]tan\theta=\frac{Perpendicular}{Base}[/tex]
So,
[tex]\begin{gathered} tan34^{\circ}=\frac{25}{x} \\ x=\frac{25}{0.67} \\ x=37.3 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Answer:
Hence, 37.3 feet is the distance of dog from building.
