A hiker stops to rest and sees a deer in the distance. If the hiker is 48 yards lower than the deer and the angle of elevation from the hiker to the deer is 15°, find the distance from the hiker to the deer.

Answer: 46.9
Step-by-step explanation:
use Equation for cos15°
cos15°=48y/distance
0.9659=48/Distance
distance=48/0.96592
distance=49.69 yard
