Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

132-5 therefore the height from the eyes to the window is 127

100 feet away from the base of the tower  

This forms two legs of a triangle

trying to find the degrees of this triangle.

Since its the two legs, you can use tanx which = to opposite side/adjacent side

Therefore, it is tanx = 127/100

But you are looking for x so arctan(1.27)

Must use calculator to find x

Hope this answer helps you :)

Have a great day
