The Sine or Sin(θ) in a right angle triangle is the ratio of its perpendicular to its Hypotenuse. The Height on the wall till which the ladder reaches is 21.148 ft.

<h3>What is Sine (Sinθ)?</h3>

The Sine or Sin(θ) in a right angle triangle is the ratio of its perpendicular to its Hypotenuse. it is given as,

Sin(θ) = Perpendicular/Hypotenuse

where,

θ is the angle,

Perpendicular is the side of the triangle opposite to the angle θ,

The hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle.


The height of the wall can be found by using the trigonometry ratios, therefore, the height of the wall can be determined as,

Sin(74°) = (Height on the wall)/(Length of the wall)

Sin(74°) = (Height on the wall)/22 ft

(Height on the wall) = 21.148 ft

Hence, the Height on the wall till which the ladder reaches is 21.148 ft.
