Answer:

h = 32.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have a right triangle, to get the value of h, we will have to use the appropriate trigonometric ratio

From the diagram given, h faces the angle and that makes it the opposite side

62.5 ft faces the right angle and that makes it the hypotenuse

The trigonometric ratio that connects the two is the sine

thus, we have it that;

sine 31 = h/62.5

h = 62.5 * sin 31

h = 32.2 ft
