An observer at the top of a tower of height 20m sees a man due East of him at an angle of depression of 27°. He sees another man due south of him at an angle of depression 30°. Find the distance between the men on the ground. hint: question is from trigonometry. bearings.

The men are 35.1 meters apart.

Step-by-step explanation:

• For the first observer:

• For the second man:

• Therefore:

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to picture.

Let the distance to men are x and y and the distance between them is d.

Find the distance from the tower to men:

The distance between men is:

Note, all numbers are rounded
