Unit 3535.2 Problems Using
Trigonometry 1
![Page 7: Unit 35 Trigonometric Problems Presentation 1Finding Angles in Right Angled Triangles Presentation 3Problems using Trigonometry 2 Presentation 4Sine Rule.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cc15503460f94988557/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
When you look up at something, such as an aeroplane, the angle between your line of sight and the horizontal is called the angle of elevation.
Similarly, if you look down at something, then the angle between your line of sight and the horizontal is called the angle of depression.

Example
A man looks out to sea from a cliff top at a height of 12 metres. He sees a boat that is 150 metres from the cliffs. What is the angle of depression
Solution
The situation can be represented by the triangle shown in the diagram, where θ is the angle of depression.

Example
A ladder is 3.5 metres long. It is placed against a vertical wall so that its foot is on horizontal ground and it makes an angle of 48° with the ground.
(a)Draw a diagram which represents the information given.(b)Calculate, to two significant figures,
(i) the height the ladder reaches up the wall(ii) the distance the foot of the ladder is from the wall.
(c) The top of the ladder is lowered so that it reaches 1.75m up the wall, still touching the wall. Calculate the angle that the ladder now makes with the horizontal.
Solution
(a) Draw a diagram to represent this information
