a swimming pool is 20 meters long and 12 meters wide the bottom of the pool is slanted so that the water depth is 1.3 at the

shallow end and 4 meters deep at the deep end find the angle of depression of the bottom of the pool

Verified Answer :

Find
the angle of depression of a swimming pool

=> has 20 meters long

=> has 12 meters wide

=> it is slanted at 1.3 meters depth

=> has 4 meters at the deep end.

Now, let’s start finding the tan:

=> tan x = oop/adj

=> tan x = 4 -1.3/20

=> 0.135

=> x = tan-1 0.135, this is equals to approximately 7.69 degrees.

Thus the angle of depression is approximately 7.69 degrees.
