Answer:

[tex]48\ \text{feet}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]1\ \text{inch}[/tex] of the model is [tex]4\ \text{feet}[/tex] of the actual pole.

Here, the pole which is present in the model measures [tex]12\ \text{inches}[/tex], so

[tex]12\ \text{inches}[/tex] of the model will be [tex](12\times 4)\ \text{feet}=48\ \text{feet}[/tex]

Hence, the actual pole will be [tex]\boldsymbol{48\ \text{feet}}[/tex] tall.
