Answer:
36.58° ft
Step-by-step explanation
To solve this, you need to consider the complete visual as a triangle.
(Refer to the attached picture for better understanding)
We are assuming that the building stands at an angle of 90° to the ground, making the triangle a right-angled triangle. We can apply the trignometric formula that links an angle to two sides: perpendicular, which is the height of the building (a) in this case, and base, the length of the shadow cast (b) by the building of known length.
tan(θ) = length of perpendicular (a) / length of base (b)
We are using this formula, as we know the values of the above mentioned sides of the triangle.
Solve:
tan(29°) = P / 66
0.554 x 66 = P
36.58 = P
