Answer:

53.1°

Step-by-step explanation:

got it correct on edge 2021! ^_^

The approximate angle of elevation from the point on the bottom is; D: 53.1°

What is the angle of elevation?

We are told she dived into a pool that is 8 ft deep.

Now, she could touch the bottom with her hands 6 ft horizontally. Thus;

We  can use trigonometric ratio to determine  the approximate angle of elevation from the point on the bottom of the pool where she touched to her entry point.

If the angle of elevation is θ, then we have;

θ = tan⁻¹(8/6)

θ = 53.1°
