The measure of the angle of elevation from the ground to the top of the ladder is 68.73 degrees
<h3>Angle of elevation and depression</h3>
From the question given, we have the following parameters
Base of the building = 7feet
Height of the building = 18 feet
Required
angle of elevation
Using the SOH CAH TOA identity
tanФ = opp/adj
tanФ = 18/7
Ф = 68.73 degrees
Hence the measure of the angle of elevation from the ground to the top of the ladder is 68.73 degrees
