Answer:
The fire is 752.741 meters far from the base of tower
Step-by-step explanation:
Tower=160 meters tall
Angle of Depression=12°
tan(12°)=[tex]\frac{perpendicular(tower)}{base(distance from fire)}[/tex]
tan(12°)=[tex]\frac{160 meters}{base(distance from fire)}[/tex]
Distance from fire= [tex]\frac{160 meters}{tan12}[/tex]
Distance= 752.741 meters
