Question 3 (1 point)
Two walls of a canyon form the walls of a steady flowing river. From a point on the shorter wall, the angle of elevation to the top of the opposing wall is 20° and the angle of depression to the bottom of the opposing wall is 45°. The distance from the top of the shorter wall to the bottom of the opposing wall is 270 feet. Using the appropriate right triangle solving strategies, solve for the following: (Do not round intermediate calculated values. Only the final answer should be rounded to one decimal place.)
