since a 45 degree right triangle has two equal sides, using pythagorean theorem,
150^2 = a^2 + a^2
2a^2 = 150^2
a = squareroot(150^2/2) = 75sqrt(2) feet = ~106.066 feet
150^2 = a^2 + a^2
2a^2 = 150^2
a = squareroot(150^2/2) = 75sqrt(2) feet = ~106.066 feet

sin45 = h/150
h = 150*sin45 =
h = 150*sin45 =
