Answer:

x = 35 feet.

Explanation:

Given that,

The height of the person is 5 feet.

The height of the flag and the eye is (x-5) feet.

We can calculate using trigonometry.

$\tan\theta=((x-5))/(30)\\\\\tan(45)=((x-5))/(30)\\\\(x-5)=30\\\\x=30+5\\\\x=35\ ft$

So, the value of x is equal to 35 feet. The correct option is (c).
