1 Light Year = 5.88*10^{12} miles

The distance of star from the Earth in Light Years = 1.92*10^{3} Light Years.

The distance of star from the Earth in miles will be:

(1.92*10^{3})*(5.88*10^{12}) \\  \\ 
 =1.92*5.88*10^{3+12} \\  \\ 
=1.92*5.88*10^{15} \\  \\ 
=11.2896*10^{15} \\  \\ 
=1.12896*10*10^{15}  \\  \\ 
=1.13*10^{16}

Thus, the star is approximately 1.13*10^{16} miles from the Earth.

Using the Pythagorean theorem a^2 +b^2 = c^2, where a and b are the sides of a triangle and c is the hypotenuse.

BA and AC are sides and BC is the hypotenuse.

we have 23^2 + b^2 = 45^2

529 + b^2 = 2025

b^2 = 2025 - 529

b^2 = 1496

b = sqrt(1496)

b = 38.68 = 38.7

The length of AC = 38.7
