As a part of their weather unit, Anoki’s science class took a hot air balloon ride. As they passed over a fenced field, the angle of depression of the closer side of the fence was 32°, and the angle of depression of the farther side of the fence was 27°. If the height of the balloon was 800 feet, estimate the width of the field. Round your answer to the nearest foot.

Hello there!

I hope you and your family are staying safe and healthy!

P.S. I did my best drawing the problem :)

~289.8 ft

I hope this makes sense! See picture for additional info.

As always, it is my pleasure to help students like you!

introduction, methodology, results, discussion

step-by-step explanation:

an observational study is one which consists of actual observation to record data and then analyse the data.

there are a number of factors that should be analyzed before starting an observational study.

the main four factors are:

i) introduction:   this should be analysed to check whether the purpose of the study is correctly established and the data recorded are appropriate for the study

methodology:   the method of collecting the data, such as whether randomly selected, and whether sample size matches with the population to be studied, whether questions asked are easy to answer by common men, etc.

results: then results such as summary of data with comments should be studied thoroughly

discussion:   the last is the discussion, this can be either by management people or persons who are all interested , etc.
