The Huqiu Tower in China was built in 961 CE. When the tower was first built, its height was 47 m. Since then it has tilted 2.8°, so it is called China's Leaning Tower. There is a specific point on the ground where you can be equidistant from both the top and the bottom of the tower. How far is this point from the base of the tower? Round your answer to the nearest metre.

Ratios

A ratio is a comparison between two numbers of the same kind. It represents how many times one number contains another. It also represents how small or large one number is compared to the other.

Trigonometric Ratios

Trigonometric ratios give values of trigonometric functions. It always deals with triangles that have one angle measuring 90 degrees. These triangles are right-angled. We take the ratio of sides of these triangles.
