The known information is
D = 17
𝛂 = 25 = Tangent is 0.4662
𝛃) = 45 = Tangent is 1.0000
Cellphone is 5 feet off ground
Top line 17 X 0.4663 X 1.0000 = 7.9271
Bottom line 1.0000 - 0.4663 = 0.5337
Now take 7.9271 ÷ 0.5337 = 14.8531
Now add the height of cellphone off ground we will say 5 feet each person is different
The real height is 14.9 + 5 = 19.9 feet
