OpenStudy (anonymous):

what angle is the helicopter elevated at?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is ed and dg values are given

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@akshay they aren't needed to be given.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then how you find ans

OpenStudy (anonymous):

at what angle (name) is helicopter elevated? = your answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(hint) the answer ends with angle E

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if we know ans we can find angle by taking ratio of sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha so its A ty

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea, either A or C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

XO no, C @malehuman01

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ans is b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is what i was going for --> GDE |flippped| EDG <---

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry dge

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think this is C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

.. now I'm confused x.x

OpenStudy (phi):

angle of elevation is this |dw:1398183822517:dw|

OpenStudy (phi):

the angle you "look up" from the horizontal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it IS b!

OpenStudy (phi):

you can name that angle using the letters. the middle letter is *always* at the vertex. the "end letters" can be in either order

OpenStudy (phi):

how did you get DEG ? "G" *must be* the middle letter.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Jus corrected. I realized G was supposed to be the middle letter. I think this is right.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

G was at the vertex
