The angle of elevation of the sun from the ground to the top of a tree is 36°.

We are given that:

The sun from the ground to the top of a tree when a tree that is 10 yards tall casts a shadow 14 yards long.

Now by using the trigonometric identity .

tan θ = P / B

As figure is  given below .

AB =  Perpendicular = 10 yards

BC =  Base = 14 yards

Putting all the values in the trigonometric identity .

tan θ = 10 / 14

θ = 36°

Therefore, the angle of elevation of the sun from the ground to the top of a tree is 36°.
