Mr Gray stood on top of the CN tower and spotted a Casa lama, his angle of depression is 6 degrees. He then turned around 110 degree and found CNE. His angle of depression to CNE is about 9 degree. The height of CN tower is 553 m above the ground. Calculate the distance between casa lama and CNE.
I Know how to measure angle of depression and that this question would consists of 2 triangles but I am confused how to use that 110 degree in calculation. What is that angle?? Please help me with this question and I really prefer if somebody draw a proper triangle and locate that 110 degree
This seems to make sense if both CNE and Casa lama are on the ground, which is not at all clear from the question. If this is not the case, then you need some piece of extra data to solve the exercise. Anyway, here is my attempt, assuming that those two things are on the ground. Rather than two triangles you should think of this as a pyramid, with triangular basis. Mr Gray is the top vertex of the pyramid, the other vertices are the base of the tower, CNE and the lama.
I tried to draw a picture explaining the situation, let me know if you find this helpful.
