Answer:

70.02

Explanation:

Assuming that this is a right angle, use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for the missing side, which is 55.

Using the law of sines, you will get this:
(100)/(sin55) =(x)/(sin35)

Get rid of the denominators by multiplying them on both sides:
100(sin35)=x(sin55)

Divide to isolate x:
(100(sin35))/(sin55) =x

Plug them into the calculator, and you will get: 70.02

Answer:

75.02

Explanation:

we need to find the height so we mark the height as (o) since we only know the adjacent we will use tan.

So we will do tan/35 x o/100

to find o we need to multiply it

so O = 100 x tan35

O= 70.02

and we need to add the 5ft

so it will be 75.02 to the nearest decimal
