Applying the tangent ratio, the distance from A to C across the gorge, is: 60.6 ft.

<h3>What is Tangent Ratio?</h3>

The tangent ratio for solving a right triangle is given as, tan ∅ = opposite/adjacent.

Given the following:

∅ = 25°
Adjacent length = 130 ft
Opposite length = AC

Apply the tangent ratio:

tan 25 = AC/130

AC = (130)(tan 25)

AC = 60.6 ft

Let's construct an equation for Canton's population increase as 7220+80n and Holly Spring's population increase with 3200+120n, where n is the number of years. We have to set these equations to each other in order to find when the population of these two places are equal. 3200+120n=7220+80n and n=100.5. After 100 and half years
