Question interpreted as:
ABC is a right triangle right angled at A.
BC=17 feet
angle C = 35 degrees.
AC=BCcos(35)=17*0.8192=13.93 feet to the nearest 1/100th of a foot.
your options are Put the point of the compass on point B and the pencil point on point C. With the compass point still on B, draw two arcs that intersects the circle with center A.
Use a straightedge to join the four points where the circles intersect.
Draw and label the points where the circles with centers A and B intersect and where the circles with centers A and C intersect.
Put the point of the compass on point B and the pencil point on point C. Using this compass width, put the compass point on A and draw another circle.
