Answer:


\displaystyle 11,7\:cm. ≈ AC


\displaystyle ∠E

Explanation:

When you draw your triangle, based on the information given to you, you will end up having to use the secant [or cosine] trigonometric ratio. Here is how it is done:


\displaystyle (14)/(AC) = sec\:33 \hookrightarrow 14 = ACsec\:33 \hookrightarrow (14)/(sec\:33) = AC; 11,741387951... = AC \\ \\ 11,7 ≈ AC

OR


\displaystyle (AC)/(14) = cos\:33 \hookrightarrow 14cos\:33 = AC; 11,741387951... = AC \\ \\ 11,7 ≈ AC

Extended information on trigonometric ratios


\displaystyle (OPPOCITE)/(HYPOTENUSE) = sin\:θ \\ (ADJACENT)/(HYPOTENUSE) = cos\:θ \\ (OPPOCITE)/(ADJACENT) = tan\:θ \\ (HYPOTENUSE)/(ADJACENT) = sec\:θ \\ (HYPOTENUSE)/(OPPOCITE) = csc\:θ \\ (ADJACENT)/(OPPOCITE) = cot\:θ

Well, there you have it! With all of this information, you should be capable of understanding the concept.

I am joyous to assist you at any time.
