Answer:109.1 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
What function uses the ADJACENT and the HYPOTENUSE?
\text{SOH-CAH-TOA}
SOH-CAH-TOA
\cos N = \frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{hypotenuse}}=\frac{73}{x}
cosN=
hypotenuse
adjacent
=
x
73
\cos 48=\frac{73}{x}
cos48=
x
73
x\cos 48=73
xcos48=73
Cross multiply.
\frac{x\cos 48}{\cos 48}=\frac{73}{\cos 48}
cos48
xcos48
=
cos48
73
Divide each side by cos 48.
x=\frac{73}{\cos 48}=109.0968\approx 109.1\text{ feet}
x=
cos48
73
=109.0968≈109.1 feet
Type into calculator and roundto the nearest tenth of a foot.
