Ground distance of Bob  from his friends house = 61 ft (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of string = 75 ft

Angle with the ground = 35°

Find:

Ground distance of Bob  from his friends house.

Computation:

Using trigonometric application:

⇒ Cos $\theta$ = Base / Hypotenuse

⇒ Cos 35° = Base / 75

⇒ 0.819 = Base / 75

⇒ Base = 61.425 ft

Ground distance of Bob  from his friends house = 61 ft (Approx)
