A golfer is standing on a tee with a green in a valley below. If the tee is 43 yards higher
than the green and the direct distance from the green to the hole is 177 yards, find the
angle of depression from the tee to the green.

Answer:

[tex]13.65^0.[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Height of tee, H = 43 yard

Direct distance of the hole is, D = 177 yards

Now, Angle of depression of tee

[tex]\tan \theta = \dfrac{H}{D}[/tex]

[tex]\tan \theta = \dfrac{43}{177}[/tex]

[tex]\tan \theta =0.2429[/tex]

[tex]\theta = 13.65^\circ[/tex]

Hence, angle of depression from tee to the green is [tex]13.65^0.[/tex]
