Wendy spots a pizza delivery car as she is looking down at a 75° angle from the top of her apartment building, which is 145 ft tall. how far away is the car from the base of the building? round to the nearest hundredth.
Call the length from the car to the building is x. tan(75°)=x/145 x=tan(75°) × 145 x=341.15 feet [tex] \tan(75) = \frac{x}{145} [/tex] [tex]x = \tan(75) \times 145[/tex] [tex]x = 341.15[/tex]
