Answer:

  • Opposite
  • Tangent
  • 87.4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height be x

1. It is the opposite side

2. The ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side is called the tangent

3. As per definition of the tangent we got:

  • x/76 = tan 49
  • x = 76*tan 49
  • x = 76*1.15
  • x = 87.4 ft
