How tall is flagpole

Question

Right angle 📐 solve for x in feet is 25’ and 60 degrees

Answer 1

angle T =

60 degrees 25' =

60 + 25/60 degrees =

60 + 5/12 degrees =

725/12 degrees =

60.416666666666..... degrees

= 60416 degrees

= 1.0544697564132407860580631726285... radians

If x is the adjacent side of the angle, then

tan T = h/x where h is the height of the flag pole...

then h = x * tan T
