Answer:

3,332 meters

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Given Data:

x = 3 m

h1 = 1.6 m

h2 =?

y: flagpole height

As we know that

y = h1 + h2

tanα = opposite leg ÷ adjacent leg

tan α = h2 ÷ x

h2 = tanα × x

h2 = tan30 ° × 3 m

h2 = 1,732 m

So, The height of the flagpole is:

y = 1.60 m + 1.732 m

y = 3,332 m
