A surveyor on the New York City side of the Hudson River wishes to find the height of a cliff (the Palisades) on the New Jersey side. Figure 4.56 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.)
