This math is just too much and makes little to no sense.
Answer:
height ≈ 31 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The illustration below will form a right angle triangle. He is standing 17 ft away from the base of the statue. The angle of elevation from the ground to the top of the statue is 61°. The height of the statue can be computed below.
adjacent side of the triangle = 17 ft
opposite side = a
Using SOHCAHTOA principle
tan 61° = opposite/adjacent
tan 61° = a/17
cross multiply
a = 17 tan 61°
a = 17 × 1.80404775527
a = 30.6688118396
a ≈ 31 ft
