Let h ft be the height of the building.
cos45.5° = h/33.0
h = 33.0 cos45.5°
h = 23.1
The building is 23.1 ft tall.
cos45.5° = h/33.0
h = 33.0 cos45.5°
h = 23.1
The building is 23.1 ft tall.

height = 33sin(45.5°)

use cosine

The ladder, building and ground make an right triangle with the ladder being the hypotenuse.
Since you want to find the Side adjacent(Building height) you need to use the cosine
cos(45.5) = Side Adjacent / Hypotenuse
So: Height = 33*cos(45.5)
Since you want to find the Side adjacent(Building height) you need to use the cosine
cos(45.5) = Side Adjacent / Hypotenuse
So: Height = 33*cos(45.5)
