In this video, I go through an angle of elevation and depression word problem. From the foot of a building, I have to look upwards at an angle of 22 degrees to see the top of a tree. From the top of a 150 ft building, I have to look down at an angle of depression of 50 degrees to look at the top of the tree. To the nearest thousandth of a foot, how tall is the tree, and how far is the building from the tree? I solve this problem using the basic trig functions (sin, cos, tan), along with geometry concepts such as properties of rectangles and alternate interior angles.
