To find the height $$ h $$ relative to side $$ a $$ in a triangle, you can use the sine function:

$$
h = a \times \sin(\angle C)
$$

Given:
- $$ a = 15 $$ yards
- $$ \angle C = 62^\circ $$

Calculating:

$$
h = 15 \times \sin(62^\circ) \approx 15 \times 0.8829 \approx 13.244 \text{ yards}
$$

Rounding to the nearest yard:

$$
h \approx 13 \text{ yards}
$$

**Answer:** 13 yards
$$ h \approx 13 $$ yards

If yards and degrees, what is the measure of to the nearest yard?
