1. The surveyor sets up the instrument to determine the height at the highest point on the hill. She determines that she is standing at a horizontal distance of 100 m and sights the top of the hill using an angle of 17. a) Solve for the unknown height. 100 m 17 Safety Considerations top of hill toboggan run safety angle 2. The distance of the toboggan run will be approximately 70m along the slope of the hill. Safety recommendations state that the angle between level ground and the toboggan run is not greater than 25. a)Use the height of the hill that you determined in the first part. b)Solve for the unknown angle. c)Does the hill meet the safety standards? d)When the surveyor reports her findings to the park planners, they have some concerns about the safety angle. They would prefer that the safety angle is closer to 20. What could be changed on the hill to allow for the planners' preference to be met? 1.
