Angle Elevation Land
1. **Problem 1: Calculate the angle of elevation of point B from point A.**
The boy at point A is 5 m from the building's foot, the bird at point B is 8 m above the ground on top of the building.
2. **Step 1:** Identify the right triangle formed by points A, the foot of building, and B.
- Horizontal distance (adjacent side) = 5 m
- Vertical distance (opposite side) = 8 m
3. **Step 2:** The angle of elevation $\theta$ is the angle at A between the ground and line AB.
By trigonometry,
$$\tan \theta = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}} = \frac{8}{5}$$
4. **Step 3:** Calculate $\theta$:
$$\theta = \tan^{-1} \left( \frac{8}{5} \right)$$
Using a calculator,
$$\theta \approx \tan^{-1} (1.6) \approx 58.0^\circ$$

5. **Problem 2: Calculate the total area of the father's land if Pato inherited 19.5 hectares, which is 65% of the total.**
6. **Step 1:** Let total land area be $T$ hectares.
The problem states:
$$0.65 \times T = 19.5$$
7. **Step 2:** Solve for $T$:
$$T = \frac{19.5}{0.65} = 30$$
**Final answers:**
- Angle of elevation $\theta \approx 58.0^\circ$
- Total land area $T = 30$ hectares
