Solution

We will draw a diagram to illustrate the information

Using the concept of SOHCAHTOA

We are given adjacent and we want to find opposite

[tex]\begin{gathered} tan\theta=\frac{opposite}{adjacent} \\ tan29=\frac{H}{71} \\ cross\text{ multiply} \\ H=71tan29 \\ H=39.35594265 \\ H=39ft \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is

[tex]undefined[/tex]
