It is given that Emily is 12 feet away from light pole and distance between Emily to a point of tangency on the pole is 24 feet.
So the diagram is
Here x is the radius of the light pole.
Use the Pythagoras theorem , to find x.



![x=\sqrt[]{432}](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/college/yosijrmcs479llfq3m9nmrgqzoydxxn6lk.png)

Hence the radius of light pole is 20.78 feet.
