The height of the skyscraper is 177.51 m which is 331 m from the base of skyscraper.

What is Trigonometric Ratio?

Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that studies relationships between side lengths and angles of triangles.

Here, h₀ = 1.52 m,      angle of elevation = 28⁰

         d = 331 m

Now, tan 28⁰ = h/d

         h = d. tan 28⁰

         h = 331 X 0.5317

         h = 175.99 m

Total height = h + h₀

                    = 175.99 + 1.52

                    = 177.51 m

Thus, the height of the skyscraper is 177.51 m which is 331 m from the base of skyscraper..
