Parts 1,2,3 & 5 all use right triangles to solve them...and as the question asks...you need to draw them. In each case you will need some simple trig to define the answer. The answer to part 4 uses the law of sines.

- When observed from the top of a 250 ft. tall lighthouse, the angle of depression of an approaching ship is 50 degrees Identify the horizontal distance from the lighthouse to ship rounded to the nearest foot.
- The angle of elevation from a person lying on the ground to a hot-air balloon is 37°. The balloon is at an altitude of 1500 feet. Find the horizontal distance from the person to a point on the ground directly below the balloon
- The angle of depression from a plane to the airport is 34°. The pilot reports that the plane’s altitude is 3200 feet. Find the horizontal distance between the plane and the airport.
- A triangle has angle measurements of 40°, 59°, and 81°. The side opposite the 40° angle is 11 cm long. Find the length of the side opposite the 81° angle.
- From a point on the ground 12 feet to the side of the building, the angle of elevation to the top of the building is 76°. How tall is the building?\
