Answer:

h= 11.3cm

or h= 11.30cm

or 11cm to 2sf.

Explanation:

Tan (37) = 0.7535540501

15 x 0.7535540501 = 11.30331075

h = 11.30331075

So option 1 is Tan (angle) = A then A x length

A = Angle 37 and multiply the product by its length 15

-----

A way to know you got the correct side is check hypotenuse

but convert angle to 90-37 = 53

Sin (53) = 0.79863551 then divided by

15/ 0.79863551 = 18.7820348735

Slant hypotenuse = 18.7820348735

Divided by base 15 (base) but we can convert angle to 53

------

If ever your confused with angle stick to sin and check the second way of doing Sin by entering your first h measure exactly same way to replace 15

When you type in sin (37) it only works on this way Side (measure only)

There is tan and just this Sin to find h

Sin (37) = 0.6018150232 then divided by

11.30331075 /0.6018150232

slant hypotenuse = 18.7820348683

but if you did it both angles the wrong way one would round show 14.15327843 when x it by h we know this is wrong as the side measure once found using tan =side measure = find h would be imputed as the main number to divide the product of Sin (37) same measure to counter-check so 1+3 makes sense for finding sides low angles just the same when you turn triangle to its side its base and top angles that work tan and sin using same numbers side findings from tan use for sin and only same angles 1+3.
