The angle of depression is 61 degrees.

What is the Angle of Depression?

The angle between the horizontal line and the line of sight is called the Angle of  Depression.

The height of the building is 60 foot

The distance of Rita from the building is 37 feet

The total height of the building and Arianna is 65 feet

A right-angled triangle is formed and so trigonometric ratios can be used.

tan x = Perpendicular/ Base

Let the angle of depression is x.

The angle tan (90- x) = 37/65

(90-x) = 29.49

x = 60.35 degree

x ≈ 61 degree

Therefore, the angle of depression is 61 degrees.
