Angle of Elevation & Depression
1. The top of the lighthouse is 100
m from the ground. The angle of
depression of a boat from the top
of the lighthouse is 45. Find the
distance of the boat from the
lighthouse

3. Amir is looking at a box on the

floor. He stands at distance 50cm
from the box. If the angle of
depression of the box from Amir
is 75, find Amirs height.

2. A driver is observing a traffic

light at a junction. The angle of
elevation of the traffic light from
the driver is 55. If the distance
of the driver from the traffic light
is 5m, find the height of the
traffic light.

building. The angle of depression
of the top of the flagpole is 50.
Your distance from the building
is 40m. If the height of the
flagpole is 10m, find the height
of the building.
