Answer:

551.8 feet

Explanation:

We are given

Adjacent = 1300 feet

Opposite = x

Angle = 23°

We solve using the trigonometric function Tangent

tan θ = Opposite/Adjacent

tan 23 = x/1300 feet

Cross Multiply

x = tan 23 × 1300 feet

x = 551.81726107 feet

Approximately = 551.8 feet

The Length of the building = 551.8 feet
