Critical values of correlation coefficient

The heights (in inches) and pulse rates (in beats per minute) for a sample of 60 women were measured. Using technology with the paired height/pulse data, the linear correlation coefficient is found to be 0.230. Is there sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a linear correlation between the heights and pulse rates of women? Use a significance level of α=0.01
