From the side of a hill wai-kin looks up at the top of a nearby vertical cliff at an angle of elevation of 36 degrees and looks down at the bottom of the cliff at an angle of depression of 47 degrees. Wai-kin and the cliff are 490 meters apart.

881.5 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The horizontal plane at the level of wai-kin's eyes divide the height of the cliff into two parts. Let the upper part be represented by x and the lower part be represented by y.

The height of the cliff = x + y

Applying the appropriate trigonometry functions.

To determine the value of x;

Tan θ =

Tan =

⇒ x = 490 x Tan

      = 490 x 0.7265

     = 355.985

x = 356 meters

To determine the value of y;

Tan θ =

Tan =

⇒ y = 490 x Tan

      = 490 x 1.0724

      = 525.476

y = 525.5 meters

Therefore,

The height of the cliff = x + y

                                   = 355.985 + 525.476

                                   = 881.461

The height of the cliff is 881.5 meters.

  n=   0.0000 - 0.3750 i  

  n=   0.0000 + 0.3750 i

one of these should be correct

each side has a different length.
