Answer:

21.8 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent function relates this angle, height and horizontal distance:

                                   height

tan 23.6 degrees = --------------

                                     50 m

Then the height of the building is  (50 m)(tan 23.6 degrees) = 21.8 m
