Answer: 45.03\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The length of the shadow is 78 ft

the angle of elevation is \theta =30^{\circ}

Suppose the height of the building is h

From the figure, we can write

\tan 30^{\circ}=\dfrac{h}{78}\\\\h=78\tan 30^{\circ}\\\\h=45.03\ ft

The height of the building is 45.03 ft
