$$\frac{b}{a}$$

Question 7

A surveyor measures the angle of elevation to the top of a building as $$30^\circ$$ from a point 50 meters from the base. How tall is the building? (Use $$	an 30^\circ = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}})$$

Accepted Answer

$$50 \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} \approx 28.87$$ meters

Question 8

Accepted Answer

$$\frac{3}{4}$$

Question 15

Which of the following is true for all right triangles regarding trigonometric functions?

Accepted Answer

The value of a trigonometric function depends only on the size of the angle, not the size of the triangle.
