Answer:
5956 ft
Explanation:
If we designate the points at the bases of the skyscrapers as A and B, and the top of skyscraper B as point T, then triangle ABT is a right triangle with angle B = 90° and angle A = 13.7°.
The definition of the tangent function tells us ...
tan(A) = BT/AB
Solving for AB, we find ...
AB = BT/tan(A) = (1452 ft)/tan(13.7°)
AB ≈ 5956 ft
The skyscrapers are about 5956 feet apart.
