See attached diagram.
A right triangle is formed with the 350m adjacent to the 22° angle.
We want to find the height of the triangle, the side opposite.
We can use the tangent ratio (opposite/adjacent) to find this height.
tan(22°) = x/350
Multiply each side by 350
350tan(22°) = x ≈ 141.4 m

Answer:

23.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use phyth. Thm.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

A and B are the side lengths, and C is the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is across the right angle.

Since you only have one side length and the hypotenuse this what your equation will look like:

30^2 + x^2 = 38^2

900 + x^ = 1444

544 = x^2

x = roughly 23.3
