Four Square. The game Four Square is making a comeback on college campuses. The game is played on a 16 -ft square court divided into four smaller squares that meet in the center. If a line is drawn diagonally from one corner to another corner, then a right triangle $Q T S$ is formed, where $\angle Q T S$ is $45^{\circ} .$ Using a trigonometric function, find the length of the diagonal. Round the answer to the nearest tenth of a foot.

Height of a Hot-Air Balloon. As a hot-air balloon began to rise, the ground crew drove $1.2 \mathrm{mi}$ to an observation station. The initial observation from the station estimated the angle between the ground and the line of sight to the balloon to be $30^{\circ} .$ Approximately how high was the balloon at that point? (We are assuming that the wind velocity was low and that the balloon rose vertically for the first few minutes.)
