The height of the mountain is 677.21 m
The given parameters;
length of the slope, L = 2780 m
angle of inclination, Ф = 14.1°
let the height of the mountain, = h
A simple sketch of the problem is given below;
↓P
↓
↓ h
↓ 14.1°
↓------------------------------------------------Q
A straight line joining PQ is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.
The height of the right triangle is calculated as follows;
[tex]sin(14.1) = \frac{h}{PQ} \\\\\h = PQ \times sin(14.1)\\\\h = 2780 \times sin(14.1)\\\\h = 677.21 \ m[/tex]
Thus, the height of the mountain is 677.21 m
