To find the distance use a trigonometric ratio. Since we are looking for the hypotenuse and we are given the opposite side we will be using the ration of sine. We can set up the equation like this by using x as the measure we are looking for.
Sin of x=Opposite leg/Hypotnuse
Sin of 30= 15/x
Multiply by x and then divide by Sin of 30 to isolate the x.
