Answer:

44.81 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

step 1

In the right triangle ACD

Find the length side AC (height of the small fire tower)

$tan(52^o)=\frac{AC}{50}$ ---> by TOA (opposite side divided by the adjacent side)

Solve for AC

$AC=tan(52^o){50}$

$AC=64\ ft$

step 2

In the right triangle ABE

Find the length side AB

$tan(21^o)=\frac{AB}{50}$ ---> by TOA (opposite side divided by the adjacent side)

solve for AB

$AB=tan(21^o){50}$

$AB=19.19\ ft$

step 3

How many feet off the ground is the squirrel?

Subtract the length side segment AB from the length side segment AC

so

$64-19.19=44.81\ ft$
