Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 90 degrees. In a high-Fowler's position, the client's head of the bed is raised to a 90-degree angle. This positioning helps improve breathing and facilitates eating and talking. Choice A, 15 degrees, is incorrect as it is not high enough to be considered a high-Fowler's position. Choice B, 0 degrees, is incorrect as it represents a flat or supine position. Choice D, 30 degrees, is also incorrect as it does not meet the criteria for a high-Fowler's position.
