Consider triangle ABM Angle BAM is a right angle
21
- From point A, a mountain point due north is at an elevation of 20°. From point B, 2Km east of A and on the same level as A, the bearing of the peak is N40°W. Find the height of the peak above A and B. Consider triangle ABM A M B 50° 2 Km Side AM, which is common to both triangles, can now be calculated
