The length of the guy wire (rounded to the nearest foot) is 20 ft. Then the correct option is A.
It is a type of triangle in which one angle is 90 degrees and it follows the Pythagoras theorem and we can use the trigonometry function.
A guy wire supports a cell phone tower.
The guy wire makes a 55° angle with the ground and touches the ground 34 ft from the base of the tower.
Base = 34 ft.
The length of the wire will be given as
[tex]\rm Wire \ length = 34 * cos\ 55^o\\\\Wire \ length = 19.5 \approx 20 \ ft[/tex]
The length of the wire is 20 ft. Then the correct option is A.
