Answer:
The answer to your question is Ariel is correct, x = 27 ft
Explanation:
Data
angle = Ф = 47°
Adjacent side = 25
Opposite side = x
Process
1.- To solve this problem, we must use trigonometric functions. The trigonometric function that relates the Opposite side and the adjacent side is tangent.
tan Ф = Opposite side / Adjacent side
- Solve for Opposite side
Opposite side (x) = Adjacent side x tan Ф
-Substitution
x = 25 tan 47
x = 25 (1.0724)
-Result
x = 26.8 ≈ 27 ft
Ariel is correct
