A water tower is located 356 feet from a building. From a window in the building, an observer notes that the angle of elevation to the top of the tower is 36° and that the angle of depression to the bottom of the tower is 24°. How tall is the tower? height = feet. How high is the window from the ground? window is feet above the ground.

a) A six-foot tall woman is standing 10 feet away from a light pole that is 15 feet tall. How long is the woman's shadow? HINT: Draw a picture. Write two expressions using the same trigonometric function, then, since they represent the same trigonometric function, set them equal and solve. b) A wire is attached to a 200-foot tall antenna. If the angle of elevation from the point on the ground to the top of the antenna is 30°, then...

An electrical tower of height 12 feet stands 21 feet away from a 20-foot tall building. A support cable stretched from the top of the tower to a point on the ground and then back to the top of the building. How far from the base of the tower should the cable be attached on the ground so that the least amount of total cables is used? You must set up an appropriate function to get credit. Show all work....
