Explain how trigonometry can be used to determine the height of a cell phone tower. be sure to list the tools required and how they will be used.

To measure the height of a cell phone tower using trigonometry, we can use trigonometric reasons.

In most of the cases, we recur to the tanget, because it relates the height of the tower cell and the horizontal distance to the tower.

Where is the angle formed by the ground and the ditance from the grond to the top of the tower, is the height of the tower and is the distance between the person and the tower.

The image attached shows the right triangle formed.

So, the tangent reason we use to find the height of the tower.

Using an odometer, we measure the distance of the ground. Using a theodolite we measure the angle . Then, we use the tangent reason to find .

That's how we measure the height of the tower.

cause it equals more
