Question Number 6723 by Tawakalitu. last updated on 16/Jul/16

An MTN mask is erected at a point P  in ilaro town. At a point  B due west, The angle of elevation of its top is β and at point   C due south, the angle of elevation is α. With the aid of an   appropriate diagam. show that the angle of elevation of the top  from a point due south of B and due west of C is     cot^(−1) [cot^2 (β) + cot^2 (α)]^(1/2)
