Diagram Of How Camera Works Calculus Question (Trigonometry) Word Problem?

Calculus Question (Trigonometry) Word Problem? - diagram of how camera works

A rocket fired vertically, its trajectory will be followed by a camera on the ground, 2 miles. Here you will find the relationship between the height of the rocket and the elevation angle of the camera.

I do not understand this problem. Can anyone help solve this problem by making the work and response. A pattern can be seen, so I can understand how to solve the problem.

Rocket blasts vertically, and the camera of 2 km on Earth ---- horizontal. If you have a horizontal line, draw a vertical line (which looks like "in L". You can use the two edges form a right triangle ABC say ---- basket

Thus, if a triangle has a total area of 180 degrees, and you know it ---- a triangle then one of the angles (A) was 90th So should, if A 90 degrees, the B & C 60 to 90 60 60 = 180
So, if the device is in 'B', then the angle is 60 degrees. . . :-)
