It is frequently used in mapping surveys. For example, if you want to find the distance to a mountain peak, you would find the direction to that peak from two locations and measure the distance between those two locations. Triangulation based on trigonometry for the ASA triangle would enable you to work out the distance to the mountain peak without having to go there.
The answer depends on the height of what? The method required for a person, a building, a mountain peak, a cloud would be different.
