Answer:

5.5

Explanation:

We use right triangle XVW.

For <W, VX is the opposite leg.

WX is the hypotenuse.

The trig ratio that relates the opposite leg to the hypotenuse is the sine.


\sin W = (opp)/(hyp)


\sin W = (VX)/(WX)


\sin 43^\circ = (VX)/(8~mi)


VX = 8~mi * \sin 43^\circ


VX = 5.5~mi
