A wire is attached to the top of a tower and to a point on the ground that is 35 m from the base of the tower. If the wire makes a 65 degree angle with the ground, how long is the wire? Round your answer to the nearest tenth

Respuesta :

Answer:

83 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the length of the wire is shown below:

Let us assume the length of the wire be x

Given that

There is 35m from the base of the tower

And, the angle with the ground is 65 degree

So, the length of the wire is

cos 65 = 35 ÷ x

x = 35 ÷ cos 65

= 83 m
