A 45-foot wooden ladder leans against the wall of the castle so that the angle between the ground and the ladder is 72∘ . How high does the wooden ladder reach up to the wall of the castle? This will allow you to go above the wall of the castle. Round your result to two decimal places. Draw the figure to set-up the problem, and then solve.
