A surveyor wishes to find the height of a cliff (palisade) on the opposite side of a river. The given figure shows the measurements that were made. How high is the cliff? (In the figure, the triangle containing the height h is vertical and perpendicular to the river.) The height of the cliff is __ ft. (Round to the nearest foot as needed.)

Polygon with three sides, three angles, and three vertices. Based on the properties of each side, the types of triangles are scalene (triangle with three three different lengths and three different angles), isosceles (angle with two equal sides and two equal angles), and equilateral (three equal sides and three angles of 60°). The types of angles are acute (less than 90°); obtuse (greater than 90°); and right (90°).
