Answer:

154 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A right triangle is formed, where the height of the wheel (h) is one leg, the distance between you and the base of the wheel is the other leg, and the distance between you and the top of the wheel is the hypotenuse (the angle included between the last two sides is 51°)

From definition:

tan(51°) = opposite/adjacent

tan(51°) = h/125

h = tan(51°)*125

h = 154 ft
