The angle of depression from a helicopter to a landing pad is 65 if the horizantal distance from the helicopter to the landing pad is 1000ft how high up is the helicopter

Approximately 679ft... I don't know exact cuz i did it in my head i used the pythagorean theorem and sin=opp/hyp to find answer Hope this helps

the answer is b.

step-by-step explanation:

by the trigonometric ratio tangent, tangent equals opposite divided by adjacent.

therefore, tan(50) equals ac/3

multiply each side by 3 to get: ac=3tan(50)

the answer is b.
