We can use trigonometry to solve the problem. First draw a picture of the situation to understand what is going on (See the attached photo).

Next, we can use the tangent  function to solve for the height of the building:

[tex]tan(29^{\circ})= \frac{h}{71} [/tex]

Next, rearrange the problem to solve for h:

[tex]h = 71tan(29^{\circ})[/tex]

h = 39.356 ft
