The sun shines on a flagpole, causing a shadow to be cast on the ground. The distance from the base of the pole to the tip of the shadow is 49 feet. At that time of day, the sun's rays make an angle of 38° with the ground. How tall is the flagpole?​.

Answer:

Illustration is in the picture.

y = sin 38° (49)

y = 0.615661475(49)

y = 30.16741229

≈ 30.2ft.

So, the flagpole is 30.2ft long.

Hope this helps. ^^
