Answer 7

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

Answer 8

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

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.
