To solve this, it might be easier to draw it out (see the picture below). I split it into two triangles and used trig functions to find the altitude. I used the big triangle to find theta, and the used theta to find the side of the altitude. *remember that sine= opposite/hypotenuse*
.
I converted it into decimal form with a calculator and got approximately 48.9898
And if you round that, you will get the 49, which fits the inequality of
45< < 50 since it becomes 45 < 49 < 50 which is true
