Answer:

The length of HF is 73.9 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of HF be represented by x. So that applying the appropriate trigonometric function to the triangle FGH, we have;

Sin θ = [tex]\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

Where θ is the angle given in the triangle = [tex]80^{o}[/tex].

Then,

Sin 80 = [tex]\frac{x}{75}[/tex]

⇒ x = Sin 80 x 75

      = 0.9848 x 75

      = 73.86

x = 73.9

Thus, the length of HF is 73.9 feet.
