Question
A tourist views a deer from a height of 45 feet. The horizontal distance between the tourist and the deer is 130 feet. How many degrees should the tourist tilt his camera down to photograph the deer? Round your answer to the nearest degree.
- 19°
- 45°
- 71°
- 138°
Hint:
The correct answer is: 19°
Given: Horizontal distance between the tourist and the deer=130 feet
Height of the tourist=45 feet
Here perpendicular=45 feet
Base=130 feet
So the degrees by which the tourist should tilt his camera down to photograph the deer is:
