Hi there!

In order to solve, we'll need to use the trigonometry function tangent, which is opposite/adjacent.

The side opposite the angle is h, our height.
The side adjacent the angle is 41.

The equation is:
tan(58) = h/41

After multiplying both sides by the tangent of 58, you get that the height is 66m.
