For this case we can model the problem as a rectangle triangle where we have:
Base of the triangle
Angle between the base and the hypotenuse of the triangle
We want to find:
The height of the triangle
For this, we use the following trigonometric relationship:
[tex]tan (45) = h / 185
[/tex]
Clearing the height we have:
[tex]h = 185 * tan (45)
h = 185 feet[/tex]
Answer:
the height of the building is:
h = 185 feet
