Two people, standing on the same side and in line with the Washington Monument, are looking at its top. Their angles of elevation to the top of the monument are 34.1 degrees and 60 degrees, respectively. If they are standing on level ground and are 500-ft apart, how tall is the monument? You can not use the law of sines. (*Hint: use two variables.) please contact me at e mail lost_cause0909@yahoo.com
