The length of the guy's wire to the nearest foot is 89 feet.
The situation forms a right-angled triangle.
<h3>Properties of a right angle triangle:</h3>
- A right-angle triangle has one angle of 90 degrees.
- The sides can be found using the Pythagoras theorem.
- The angles can be found using trigonometric ratios.
The hypotenuse of the triangle is the length of the wire.
let's use the smaller triangle to find the angle opposite the tower. Therefore,
tan ∅ = opposite / adjacent
tan ∅ = 5 / 2
∅ = tan⁻¹ 2.5
∅ = 68.1985905136
∅ = 68.20°
Therefore,
cos 68.20 = adjacent / hypotenuse
cos 68.20 = 33 / hypotenuse
hypotenuse = 33 / cos 68.20
hypotenuse = 88.8606843161
Therefore,
length of wire ≈ 89 feet.

8/13 = 0.6153
y = cos-1(0.6153)
y = 52.0
I'm not totally sure if this is what you mean or if this is.
y = cos(8/13) = 0.9999 which to the nearest tenth is 1.0
Assuming the 2,6,1 are length, width and height we can use the formula Volume= length • width • height. When you plug those in you will get 2•6•1= 12. The volume is 12 cubic millimeters. Or 12 cubed
