Solution:
In the figure,
AB is the tower and CD is an observer
θ is the angle of observation
It is given that
AB = 22m
CD = 1.5 m
Distance BD = 20.5 m
From the point C construct CE parallel tp DB
AE = 22 – 1.5 = 20.5 m
CE = DB = 20.5 m
tan θ = AE/CE
Substituting the values
tan θ = 20.5/20.5 = 1
tan 450 = 1
θ = 450
