until now I cant figure out the building B

So for this one you can begin by constructing 2 right angled triangles.

#

After that it's pretty easy

#

So what specifically are you stuck on

raven finch
#

I got the building A because it has a given of 35m

warped iris
#

nonono building a is 35 M away from building b

raven finch
#

is this wrong 😭

warped iris
#

sorry but when that says tan 24 degrees = o/h does that mean the side over the hypotenuse?

raven finch
#

the angle opposite of the side is over hypotenuse

#

wait

#

my braincells are back

#

welcome back

#

So the base side of each triangle is 35 cm

#

*metres

#

sorry

#

So then we do (35/cos(24))*sin(24)

#

because the side over the sine of the angle gives us the hypotenuse

#

Do that for both and then add up the results

#

then just subtract (35/cos(24)*sin(24)

#

and ya done
