Question that im stuck on!!

Answer 1

You have a right triangle and to find length of g, you need to use Tangent.

We have the angle 32 degrees and we are given a side opposite to it which is 1700 - 5.2 = 1694.8
Now we simply do the following:

Tan(x) = Opposite side/Adjacent side (Here we are looking for the adjacent side that is g)
Tan(32) = 1694.8/g

Calculate Tan(32) in a calculator and you get about 0.661. So,

0.661 = 1694.8/g
g = 1694.8/0.661
g = 2564

Therefore, the length of side g is approximately 2564 ft.
