8 – 5: Angles of Elevation and
Depression
pp. 464 - 470
• Solve problems involving angles of elevation.
• Solve problems involving angles of depression.
• angle of elevation
• angle of depression
Standard 19.0 Students use trigonometric functions
to solve for an unknown length of a side of a right
triangle, given an angle and a length of a side. (Key)
Angle of Elevation
CIRCUS ACTS At the circus, a person
in the audience at ground level watches
the high-wire routine. A 5-foot-6-inch tall
acrobat is standing on a platform that is
25 feet off the ground. How far is the
audience member from the base of the
platform, if the angle of elevation from
the audience member’s line of sight to
the top of the acrobat is 27°?

DIVING At a diving competition, a 6-foot-tall diver
stands atop the 32-foot platform. The front edge of
the platform projects 5 feet beyond the ends of the
pool. The pool itself is 50 feet in length. A camera is
set up at the opposite end of the pool even with the
pool’s edge. If the camera is angled so that its line of
sight extends to the top of the diver’s head, what is
the camera’s angle of elevation to the nearest
degree?

Indirect Measurement
Vernon is on the top deck of a cruise ship and
observes two dolphins following each other directly
away from the ship in a straight line. Vernon’s
position is 154 meters above sea level, and the
angles of depression to the two dolphins are 35° and
36°. Find the distance between the two dolphins to
the nearest meter.

Indirect Measurement
ΔMLK and ΔMLJ are right triangles. The distance
between the dolphins is JK or JL – KL. Use the right
triangles to find these two lengths.
Because
are horizontal lines, they are parallel.
Thus,
and
because they
are alternate interior angles. This means that mMJL  36
and mMKL  35.

Answer: The distance between the dolphins is JK – KL.
JL – KL ≈ 219.93 – 211.96, or about 8 meters.
Madison looks out her second-floor window, which is
15 feet above the ground. She observes two parked
cars. One car is parked along the curb directly in
front of her window, and the other car is parked
directly across the street from the first car. The
angles of depression of Madison’s line of sight to the
cars are 17° and 31°. Find the distance between the
