Looking for measurements (height and area) of the Atheny Castle, County Galway, Ireland.Any other measurements that may be relevant e.g. area of...

Athenry Castle is located in Athenry, County Galway,
Ireland. The castle was originally built by Meiler de Bermingham beginning in about
1235. The castle was surrounded by a D-plan stone enclosure with round towers on each
corner. Inside, de Bermingham built a low-level, half-type one-story great tower
(measuring 54 x 34 feet). Beneath it a basement was built. de Bermingham's sons later
raised the structure, lifting the ceilings and walls, and added an arched door on the
south-east entrance; a staircase was added, and a banquet hall was built along the east
wall. The tower was raised again in the 15th century to add two more floors, including
an attic, as well as an entrance to the basement. Battlements were added to the top of
the tower. The castle has been restored in the 21st century and is now a top tourist
attraction of the area.

Calculate tan(x-y), if sin x=1/2 and sin y=1/3. 0

We'll write the formula of the tangent of difference of 2 angles. tan (x-y) = (tan x - tan y)/(1 + tan x*tan y) ...
