To estimate the height of a building, two students measured the angle of elevation to the top of the building from two different points on the ground level, distance 244.51 feet apart. The first student measured angle of elevation 30° from point A. The second student measured angle of elevation 63° from the closer point B. 30° 63° B X BUILDING 244.51 feet (Figure is NOT drawn to scale). Assuming that the street is level, answer the following questions. (Round each answer to one decimal place) i) What is the height of the building? feet ii) What is the distance from point to point ? feet (2 point Question) A water tower is located 319 feet from a building. From a window in the building, an observer notes that the angle of elevation to the top of the tower is 36° and that the angle of depression to the bottom of the tower is 20° How tall is the tower? height = feet. How high is the window from the ground? window is above the ground. feet Report answer accurate to 2 decimal places.
