The measure of the angle of elevation from the ground to the top of the ladder is 68.73 degrees
These method is used to determine the side and angles of a triangle
From the question given, we have the following parameters
Base of the building = 7feet (Adjacent side)
Height of the building = 18 feet (Opposite side)
Required
angle of elevation of the building
Using the SineOppositeHypotenuse CosineAdjacentHypotenuse TangentOppositeAdjacent identity
tanФ = opp/adj
tanФ = 18/7
Ф = 68.73 degrees
Hence the measure of the angle of elevation from the ground to the top of the ladder is 68.73 degrees
