Just one question.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Y is the middle point of WZ, ok?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\(\triangle WXY\) is a right triangle, right? You have \(\angle YWX= 15^0\), and WY , use sin to get XY

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\sin(15) = 0.25\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you want me to find sin(56) as well?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

. Oh, I am sorry, I misread, use tan (15) not sin tan(15) =\(\dfrac{XY}{WY}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\tan(15) = 0.26\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Compensate, hihihi XY= tan(15)* WY = 0.2679*28=7.5012 convert to inch, then you get the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Where did the 28 came from?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

56/2 =28 because WY = 1/2 WZ

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, thanks.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It would be C?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry for my mistake. :) One more thing, have to convert to inch.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I would say D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh yeah, round up.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@TwinYang why D?? 7.5.... feet is 7 feet and 0.5 feet, and 0.5 feet = 6 in. Am I right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh yeah I just checked your calculations and i forgot to divide 56 by 2 :P.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:)
