A tower that is 101 feet tall casts a shadow 110 feet long. Find the angle of elevation of the sun to the nearest degree.

x= 43.89

Step-by-step explanation:

Start off with your ratio. Because we're finding an angle, we'll use -1.

Since it's the opposite and adjacent, TAN is the ratio we're using here.

(tan is opposite/adjacent)

Tan -1x = 101/105

in your calculator, divide 101 and 101

=0.9619

then with this number, hit 2nd and Tan and enter and you will get

x= 43.89.
