Answer:
125°
Step-by-step explanation:
So we know that the total height is 85.5 (building height plus Lucia's height) and that the distance between Lucia and the fountain is 122ft away. As seen in the badly drawn picture below, the question asks us to solve for x, we can do this by first solving for y by using tangent to calculate its value which is the following
tan(y) = opposite / adjacent
tan(y) = 122 / 85.5
tan(y) = 1.4269
y = [tex]tan^{-1}[/tex](1.4269)
y = 54.97
Now that we have the value of y and we know that a straight line has a degree of 180, we can simply subtract the degree of y from 180 to get the degree of x
180 - 54.97 = 125.03
