Transcribed Image Text:Draw the pictures presented by the information in the problems given. (These
problems do not ask for an answer). Assume that buildings, ladders, etc. are all on
the level ground. Clear, neat, and accurate illustrations are necessary.
1. The angle of elevation at the top of the building from a point 30 meters away
from the building is 65°.
2. Two points on the same side of a tree are 19.8 meters apart. The angles of
elevation of the top of the tree are 21° from one point and 16° from the other
point.
3. A man flies a kite with a 100-foot string, the angle of elevation of the string is
52°.
