A sample of computing the height of any object.
The linear distance and the elevation angle are given.
Make sure you understand the computation.
If you know the height of the mountain/tower/... and the elevation angle from you to the top of the mountain/tower/..., how could you compute the linear distance between you and the top of the mountain.
Try for other angles and linear distances (look at the graphic)
