A flagpole is bent over by the wind so the top is now touching the ground 1[e] feet from the base (Note: if [e] = 6, then 1[e] = 16). The angle the pole makes with the ground is [c]5° (Note: if [c] = 3, then [c]5° = 35°).

How tall was the pole before the windstorm?

Round your answer to one decimal place.
