Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we can use the trigonometric function in a right triangle
cos x = adjacent side to the angle /hypothenuse
cos 36°= x/10 ; multiply both sides by 10
10 * cos 36° = x ; make sure your calculator mode is in degrees
8.1 = x
Initial: 200 feet = opp. side
Angle = 17.31, adj. Side = a
So tan (17.31) = opp. Side / adj. Side
tan (17.31) = 200 / a
--> a = 200/tan17.31 = 641.73
When stopped: adj. Still = a
Opp. Side still = 200, angle = 46.41
tan46.41 = 200 / a
--> a = 200/tan46.41 = 190.39
Now subtract those two distances to get the distance traveled from initial to when it stopped:
641.73 - 190.39 = 451.34 feet
