Respuesta :

The height of the building to the nearest tenth of a meter is; 13 m

How to make use of Cosine Rule?

The slant line from the top of Trevor's head to the base of the building is gotten from Pythagoras theorem;

15/x = sin 36°

x = 15/sin 36

x = 25.52 m

Angle between that slant line and base of building is;

90 - tan⁻¹(1.5/14) = θ

θ = 83.88°

Remaining angle of the bigger triangle is;

180 - (36 + 83.88) = 60.12°

Thus, if the height of the building is h, then;

h/sin 36 = 25.52/sin 60.12

h = 13 m
