a hot air balloon is tied to the ground with 200 ft. of rope. The wind is pushing the balloon to make a 23 degree angle with the ground. What is the real height of the balloon?

hypotenuse = 200
sin 23 = h/hypotenuse = h/200
so
h = 200 sin 23
= 78.1 ft
sin 23 = h/hypotenuse = h/200
so
h = 200 sin 23
= 78.1 ft
