Answer to Problem 9ST2

The height of cliff is 44.5m .

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

From a point on the ground 100m from the foot of the cliff, the angle of elevation of the top of the cliff is 24°.

Suppose the height of cliff is x,

Apply the tan formula for angle 24° in the right angle triangle,

  tan24°= PerpendicularBase 0.445=x100       x=100 × 0.445       x=44.5 m

Therefore, height of cliff is 44.5m .
