Trigonometry flagpole height situational word problem.

Illustration of a flagpole casting a 54.0-foot shadow with an elevation angle of 68.5° from the end of the shadow to the top of the flagpole, forming a right triangle.

The illustration shows a flagpole with an American flag at the top, casting a shadow on the ground. A right triangle is formed, where the base of the triangle represents the shadow’s length, measuring 54.0 feet. The angle between the shadow and the line connecting the flagpole’s top is marked as 68.5°. The right angle at the base indicates the perpendicular relationship between the flagpole and the ground.
