Answer:

30 Inches

Explanation:

Please refer to the image we have attached to this.

The frame is ABCD and The diagonal is AC, which is 50 inches long and making an angle of 36.87° from the bottom of the frame.

We are asked the height of the frame which is h in this image. We are going to use the trigonometric ratios in order to find the same.


\sin \theta = (opposite)/(Hypotenuse)


\sin 36.87° =
(h)/(50)


0.60=(h)/(50)


h=0.60 * 50


h=30

hence height of the frame is 30 inches
