From the given picture we can see

A right triangle DEC, where

The side opposite to angle C, ED has a length of 12 feet

The hypotenuse DC has length x feet

To find the value of x, we will use the sine ratio


\begin{gathered} \sin 70=\frac{opposite}{\text{hypotenuse}} \\ \sin 70=(DE)/(DC) \end{gathered}

Since the opposite side DE = 12

Since the hypotenuse DC = x
