ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!! please answer this and tell me how you got it for the calculations on the side. there's also a bonus question- "how far is it from the tip of the flag pole to the tip of the shadow" please answer that if you can and show work too. NO BITLY thank you!

Height of Flagpole: 24.03 feet

Length between tip of flagpole and tip of shadow: 46.67 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

So the angle of elevation (31°) is facing directly opposite of the flagpole. The shadow of the flagpole (40 ft) is adjacent to the angle of elevation. Therefore, the tangent function incorporates both the opposite and adjacent sides of the right triangle created. We would then make the equation and solve for the height of the flagpole which is the opposite side (h in this case):

tanθ = opposite/adjacent

tan(31°) = h/40

40tan(31°) = h

24.03442476 = h

h ≈ 24.03

Therefore, the height of the flagpole is about 24.03 ft.

As for your bonus question, the length of the tip of the flagpole to the tip of the shadow would be the hypotenuse of the triangle created, which can easily be found using the Pythagorean Theorem (using exact values):

a² + b² = c²

(40tan(31))² + (40)² = c²

577.6535736 + 1600 = c²

2177.6535736 = c²

46.66533589 = c

c ≈ 46.67

Therefore, the length from the tip of the flagpole to the tip of the shadow is 46.67 ft.
