Textbook Question
Chapter 2.5, Problem 26E
Distance between Transmitters Radio direction finders are set up at two points A and B, which are 2.50 mi apart on an east-west line. From A, it is found that the bearing of a signal from a radio transmitter is N 36°20' E, and from B the bearing of the same signal is N 53°40' W. Find the distance of the transmitter from B.

- Albert lives in New Orleans. At noon on a summer day, the angle of elevation of the sun is 84. The window in Alberts room is 4.0 feet high and 6.5 feet wide. (Sec Figure 24.) a. Calculate the area of the floor surface in Alberts room that is illuminated by the sun when the angle of elevation of the sun is 84. b. One winter day the angle of elevation of the sun outside Alberts window is 37. Will the illuminated area of the floor in Alberts room be greater on the summer day, or on the winter day?

A woman on the observation deck, 1150ft above the ground, wants to determine the distance between two landmarks on the ground below. She observes that the angle formed by the lines of sight to these two landmarks is 43. She also observes that the angle between the vertical and the line of sight to one of the landmarks is 62 and that to the other landmark is 54. Find the distance between the two landmarks.arrow_forward
- A boat is traveling due east parallel to the shoreline at a speed of 10 miles per hour. At a given time, the bearing to a lighthouse is S70E, and 15 minutes later the bearing is S63E (see figure). The lighthouse is located at the shoreline. What is the distance from the boat to the shoreline?arrow_forwardThe Learning Tower of Pisa The bell tower of the cathedral in Pisa, Italy, leans 5.6 from the vertical. A tourist stands 105 m from its base, with the tower leaning directly toward her. She measures the angle of elevation to the top of the tower to be 29.2. Find the length of the tower to the nearest meter.arrow_forwardHeight of a Tree An ecologist wishes to find the height of a redwood tree that is on the other side of a creek, as shown in Figure 19. From point A he finds that the angle of elevation to the top of the tree is 10.7. He then walks 24.8 feet at a right angle from point A to point B. There he finds that the angle between AB and a line extending from B to the tree is 86.6. What is the height of the tree? Figure 19arrow_forward
- Height of a Flagpole Two people decide to estimate the height of a flagpole. One person positions himself due north of the pole and the other person stands due cast of the pole. If the two people are the same distance from the pole and 25 feet from each other, find the height of the pole if the angle of elevation from the ground to the top of the pole at each persons position is 56 (Figure 21).
