Answer:

71°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle of elevation of the hill can be obtiaed using trigonometry :

Given

the opposite length = 14.5 feets

Adjacent = 5 feets

The angle of elevation vabnbe obtained using :

Tan θ = opposite / Adjacent

Where θ = angle of elevation

Tan θ = 14.5 / 5

Tan θ = 2.9

θ = tan^-1(2.9)

θ = 70.97 = 71°
