Respuesta :

Answer:

  C)  78 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The side opposite the angle has the ratio to the hypotenuse:

  Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

Then the solution to this problem is found by substituting the given information and solving for the height.

  sin(45°) = height/(110 ft)

  (110 ft)·sin(45°) = height ≈ 77.7817 ft

Rounded to the nearest foot, the crane can raise material to a height of 78 ft.
