The Problem
a) Andrew is at ground level and measures the angle
of elevation to the hot air balloon to be 37*. If, at this point he is 57 feet
away from the hot air balloon, what is the height of the hot air balloon from
the ground? (round to the nearest foot)
b) Andrew is now in the hot air balloon and
measures the angle of depression which is 25*. Andrew knows that he is 240 feet high up in the air than the base of the forest. How far away horizontally is Andrew from the forest? (round to the nearest foot)
