10 points will go to correct and most informative answer with thumbs up as well. There are 2 questions from me this week to get the maximum amount of possible points for you guys. Here is the 1st question
Two surveyors were trying to find the difference in height between Pilgreen Place and Patterson Place. They were able to get a few measurements, the angle of depression from the top of Pilgreen Place to the base of Patterson Palace is 37 degrees, also they found that Pilgreen Place is exactly 100m tall. Finally a key piece of information...the ANGLE OF DEPRESSION from the top of Patterson Place to the top of Pilgreen Place is 55 degrees. What is the difference in height between the two buildings?
Here is a link to reference too. http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g254/poker5495/POWVII.jpg
