Example A surveyor, P, is 1000 m away on horizontal ground from the foot of a radio mast, QR. From P the angle of elevation of the top, R, of the mast is 20. Find the height of the mast. Assume the surveyor’s height to be negligible. R With a written problem the first step is to draw a sketch. Hyp opp S 20 1000 Adj P
