If the sun is hitting a pole at 30 degrees altitude and the pole is 3' tall how long is the shadow?
If the pole is on level ground then you have the outline of a right angled triangle with an opposite side of 3 feet and an adjacent angle of 30 degrees. To find the length of the adjacent side (which in effect is the shadow of the pole) use the tangent ratio: tangent = opposite/adjacent which can be rearranged to: adjacent = opposite/tangent adjacent = 3/tangent 30o = 5.196152423 feet Therefore the shadow cast by the pole is 5.2 feet corrected to one decimal place.

What will be the altitude of the sun on 21june at twenty three and half degree?
On June 21, during the summer solstice in the Northern Hemisphere, the sun reaches its highest point in the sky. At 23.5 degrees latitude, the sun's altitude at solar noon will be approximately 90 degrees (directly overhead) minus the latitude, which results in an altitude of about 66.5 degrees. This means the sun will be significantly high in the sky, providing long daylight hours and intense sunlight.
How long in feet would the shadow be for an object which is 18.6 feet tall?
In addition to the height of the object, the length of its shadow depends on a few other things that are not described in the question. -- Is the object standing straight upright ? -- Is the shadow cast on the ground or on sometheing else? -- If on the ground, is the ground level ? -- What is the altitude (angle) of the sun ?
What is the measure of the angle between the end of the shadow and the vertical side of a 170ft building that cast a 40 ft long shadow?

About how long is a shadow of an 80 ft tall oak tree if the angle of the sun is 40 degrees?
It depends on the angle of depression of the sun. The answer would be 80ft * tan(90-angle of depression) At a depression angle of 40 degrees, the shadow would be 80 * tan (50) which equals 95.340ft

What is the altitude of Polaris when viewed from Long Beach?
The altitude of Polaris, the North Star, when viewed from Long Beach, California, is approximately 33 degrees above the northern horizon. This is because Polaris is located nearly directly above the North Pole, and its altitude corresponds roughly to the observer's latitude. Long Beach is situated at a latitude of about 33.8 degrees north, making Polaris visible at this angle.
