12.) A 40 m high tower stands vertically on a hill side (sloping
ground) which makes an angle of 180 with the horizontal. A
tree also stands vertically up the hill from the tower. An
observer on top of the tower finds the angle of depression of
the top of the tree to be 260 and the bottom of the tree to be
380.
i.) Find the height of the tree.
ii.) Find the inclined distance between the tower
and the tree.
iii.) What is the subtended angle of the tree at
the base of the tower.
13.) Having a certain unknown, distance measured and the
angle of elevation of the cliff, a civil engr. walked 60 m
towards B on a level surface towards the cliff. The angle of
elevation from this second station was the compliment of the
former angle. The civil engineer then walks 20 m nearer the
cliff at point C on the same line and found the angle of
elevation at C to be doubled the first angle.
i.) How far is the cliff from C horizontally?
ii.) How high is the cliff?
iii.) What is the angle of elevation of the cliff at B.?
14.) Triangle XYZ has base angles x=52 0 and Z=600 distance
