ANSWER:-
Let AB be the height and BC be the shadow.
AB = BC
AB/BC = 1
Also,
tan Θ = AB/BC = 1
But tan 45° = 1
Therefore, Θ = 45°

Angle of elevation of sun rays = 45 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
If we imagine a right angle triangle
With base = shadow and Height = Boy's Height
Tan theta = Height / shadow
Tan theta = 1. { Height = Shadow }
Tan 45 = 1.
THEREFORE,
THETA = 45 degrees.
