Answer:
a) 6.1 feet
b) 12.6 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Using trigonometric ratios we know that:
[tex]sin = \frac{opp}{hyp}\\cos = \frac{adj}{hyp}\\tan = \frac {opp}{adj}[/tex]
AKA SohCahToa.
To find the height, we will use sine.
[tex]sin(26^o)= \frac{x}{14}\\14*sin(26^o)=\frac{x}{14}*14\\14sin(26^o)=x\\x=6.14[/tex]
To find the length we will use cosine.
[tex]cos(26^o) = \frac{x}{14}\\14*cos(26^o)=\frac{x}{14}*14\\14cos(26^o)=x\\x=12.6[/tex]
