Hi please answer this and write your solution clearly. Thank you!
4. A young man launches a drone from the ground 60ft from where he is standing. As the drone hovers above the ground, the gps on the controller reads that the distance from the young man to the drone is 90 ft with an angle of elevation of 48 degrees. If the drone continues to fly away from the man maintaining the same vertical height. Sketch a diagram of the situation and determine the distance between the young man and the drone when the angle of elevation is now 40 degrees. Extra Credit:

If possible, also provide the alternative solutions to solve the problems aside form the generally accepted solutions. Thanks The two legs of a triangle are 300 and 150 m each, respectively. The angle opposite the 150 m side is 26. What is the third side? A. 197.49 m B. 218.61 m C. 341.78 m D. 282.15 m
Two poles of heights 6 m and 11 m stand on a plane ground. If the distance between their feet is 12 m, find the distance between their tops.
How can I figure out what the angles are? How can I solve for x?
I need help setting up and solving this problem. My confusion is coming from the fact that one triangle is obtuse and I'm used to working with 90 degree angles. Can someone please help me?
