The elevation is 53.13 degrees.
It is the application of trigonometry.
It deals with the sides and angles of the triangle.
It has three sides and three angles.
Given
The height of the pool is 8 feet.
And she touches the horizontal bottom of the pool is 6 feet.
The angle
The height of the pool is 8 feet.
And she touches the horizontal bottom of the pool is 6 feet.
Then angle can be calculated by the tangent of [tex]\theta[/tex].
[tex]\rm tan\ \theta = \dfrac{Peprpendicular}{Base} \\tan \theta = \dfrac{8}{6} \\[/tex]
Then the [tex]\theta[/tex] will be
[tex]\rm \theta = tan^{-1} \dfrac{8}{6} \\\theta = 53.13^{o}[/tex]
Then the [tex]\theta[/tex] will be 53.13 degrees.
Thus the elevation is 53.13 degrees.
