Please help solve fully with picture

A stop sign is 10 feet tall, and is casting a shadow downhill on a road that has an angle of elevation of 16˚. If the angle of elevation of the sun is 48˚, ho w long is the stop sign’s shadow to the nearest tenth of a foot?

Mark M.

The angle of elevation would be the same for the sign and the shadow!

I started to draw this out and will come back when I complete it. Remember that the stop sign is atop the hill and that the sun is behind the stop sign.
