Pàgina 54 - ... 25 ft. long, leans against a house and reaches to a point 21.6 ft. from the ground. Find the angle between the ladder and the house, and the distance the foot of the ladder is from the house. Why are we able to solve an example like this by trigonometry when we are not able to do so by geometry ? 9. The Washington Monument is 555 ft. high. How far apart are two observers 555 who from points due west of the monument observe its angles of elevation to be 25° and 48° 17
Pàgina 3 - X-axis toward the right. The sign and magnitude of the angle will determine the position of the terminal line, causing it to coincide with one of the axes or to fall in one of the quadrants. An angle is said to be of the first, second, third, or fourth quadrant according as its terminal line falls in that quadrant. While the acute angle is of the first quadrant, the converse is by no means necessarily true. The terminal line of every angle, however large, must coincide with the terminal line of some...
