A spotlight on top of a 40 meter tall building tilts downward in a angle of depression, to illuminate a the top of a statue in front of the building. It then tilts downward in a 55 degree angle of depression, to illuminate the bottom of the statue. 1. How tall is the statue? Hint: Consider all of the possible right triangles in your picture. You will first need to solve for one value, then another. 2. What is the length of the arc created by the spotlight at a distance of 10 meters from the spotlight?
