Finding the angle of elevation. !Problem The angle of elevation of S from Q is 33 degrees. What is the angle of elevation of T from P? I just had a math test today and I was doing pretty well until I come across this question. I need help from the experts on how should I approach this problem? Update: A friend of mine manage to solve this. !Problem Is this valid based on our given information? If not, what would the question need to be for it to be valid.

The expression "an angle of elevation of a point $A$ from a point $B$" is ambiguous. Therefore, in order to make sense of the problem, it must firstly be interpreted one way or another. In the context of this problem, I shall interpret the expression "the angle of elevation of $C$ from $Q$" as meaning the angle $\angle CPQ$, and I shall interpret the expression "the angle of elevation of $T$ from $P$" as meaning the angle $\angle TRP$.

Given these definitions, without further information the question is under-specified, and there is no way of determining the angle of elevation of $T$ from $P$. As an illustration, here are two diagrams based on the given data that show two different angles of elevation.
