Q: A photographer is 500 ft from a hot air balloon. If the balloon is $$s$$ feet above the ground, which function gives the angle $$\theta (in $$radians) between the ground and the line of sight to the balloon?

$$\theta = \tan$$^{-1}$$\left(\frac{s}{500}\right)$$

Q: A hot air balloon rises vertically from the ground. A photographer is 500 ft away from the launch site. As the balloon rises from 10 ft to 20 ft, how does the change in the viewing angle $$\theta$$ compare to the change as the balloon rises from 200 ft to 210 ft?

The change in $$\theta is $$greater from 10 ft to 20 ft.
