Let the the height of the pole be x
the length of shadow =√3x
tan @=height /length
tan @=x/√3x
tan@=1√3
we know that,
tan 30°=1/√3
so @=30°
the length of shadow =√3x
tan @=height /length
tan @=x/√3x
tan@=1√3
we know that,
tan 30°=1/√3
so @=30°

According to question,
Height of pole =x
Shadow of pole on ground =x√3=or Base
Using Tan theta
Tan theta=Opp/Adj
Tan theta=Height/Base
Tan theta=x/x√3
Tan theta=1/√3
Tan 30°=1/√3
So, The angle of elevation of sun is 30°
