The length of the support post is 40 ft.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, the height of the wall is 20 ft; support post forms 30 degree

Refer the attached image

Let us name the triangle as ABC where AB is the wall (opposite side) of 20 ft and \angle A is 30 degree (\theta) and AC is the length of the post.

To find: The length of the post (AC)

we know the formula, sin\theta=\frac{opp}{hyp} (trigonometric formula)

On substituting the values we get,

\Rightarrow sin(30^{\circ})=\frac{20}{AC}

The value of sin 30 degree is 0.5

\Rightarrow 0.5=\frac{20}{AC}\rightarrow AC=\frac{20}{0.5}\rightarrow AC=40 ft
