which she lives. The shadow cast by the light pole is 5 feet.

If the angle of elevation from the sidewalk to the top of the light pole is represented

as e, which equation could be used to find the height of the light pole?

Answer:

h = 5(tane)

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagrammatic representation of the question given is attached below ;

The height of the light pole, h = opposite side

Adjacent side = 5 feets

Angle of elevation = e

Using trigonometry ;

Tan e = opposite / Adjacent

Tan e = h / 5

Making h the subject ;

h = 5(tane)
