Consider right triangle with vertices B - base of the hill, S - top of the statue and Y - you. In this triangle angle B is right and angle Y is 13.2°. If h is a height of the statue, then the legs YB and BS have lengths 77 ft and 16+h ft.
You have lengths of two legs and measure of one acute angle, then you can use tangent to find h:
ft.
Answer: the height of the statue is 2.0565 ft.
