I am an architect who is surveying this city! It does appear that I lost my ruler, however.
I am your ruler!
This lightbulb is faulty. I can't reach it, but I can see how high up it is.
70o
1 foot
I know I am 1 foot away from the lamp and my protractor measures 70 degrees. This means tan(70) is x/1 so x = tan(70) = 2.747. This means this pole is 2.75 feet tall.
x feet
I wonder how far this tree is from the edge of the island.
40o
3 feet
If I am 3 feet away from a tree and there is a 40 degree angle between the ground and the line from me to the tree, the length from me to the base is cos(40) * 3 = 2.298, so the tree is 2.3 feet from the edge of the island
x feet
I am FINALLY back after 2 hours with a bad current.
sin(x) = 3/5 = 0.6This means x is 37o.
I wonder what the angle crated by a line || to the ground and an intersecting line that touches the of the shelf is .

5 feet
3 feet
DO NOT TOUCH
You know, I think I might live here. I just need to find my ruler and then I can become a city architect.
