hero · Answer

Do you have to do it by hand or with a calculator?

anonymous · Answer

i dont think it matters.. how would i put it into my calculator tho? i only have a standard one..

hero · Answer

First, make sure you are in degree mode.
Second, remember that $$\sec(\theta) = \frac{1}{\cos(\theta)}$$

hero · Answer

Also, use an online calc like mathway.com or wolframalpha.com if your standard calculator doesn't have any trig functions.

so d = 103.7 and d= 163.8

hero · Answer

That's it. You're done. Just don't forget the units.

d = 103.7 ft
d = 163.8 ft

Actually, you should state your findings in the form of a sentence.
