Answer:

Height of the building = 115.4 ft.

Explanation:

Height of building = AB + 46.4 + CD + 30.5

By applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔABP,

(26)² = (10)²+ (AB)²

676 - 100 = AB²

AB² = 576

AB = 24 ft

By applying sine rule in ΔCDE,

cos(60°) =
(CD)/(CE)

CD = CE ×
(1)/(2)

CD =
(29)/(2)

CD = 14.5 ft

Total Height = 24 + 46.4 + 14.5 + 30.5

= 115.4 ft
