A. GOLF A golfer is standing at the tee, looking up

to the green on a hill. The tee is 36 yards lower than
the green and the angle of elevation from the tee to
the hole is 12°. From a camera in a blimp, the
apparent distance between the golfer and the hole
is the horizontal distance. Find the horizontal
distance.

involves the ratio of the vertical rise (side opposite the
12° angle) and the horizontal distance from the tee to
the hole (adjacent).
