A 0.230 kg block on a vertical spring with spring constant of 4.75 103 N/m is pushed downward, compressing the spring 0.058 m. When released, the block leaves the spring and travels upward vertically. How high does it rise above the point of release?

I have some equations in front of me but i don't know which one to use because it seems none of them have to do with height. Can anyone help me?
