Answer:

124.80 ft

Explanation:

Height of Daniel = 6 ft

The angle of elevation from his eyes to the top of the statue is = 68°

Daniel is 48 ft away from the base of the statue

To find the height of the statue apply the tangent of an angle formula then add height of Daniel as;

Tan 68° = h/48

h= {48 tan 68°} + 6 ft

h= 124.804168964

h= 124.80 ft
