Answer:

29.0 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

Lookout station Running Deer is at A, Station Lazy Bear is at B and Fire is at C.

Bearing from Running deer to Fire is S38.4°E.

Therefore, m∠SAC = m∠ACB = 38.4°

Distance between the stations Running Deer and Lazy Beer = 18 km

From the given triangle ABC,

Sin(C) = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}} = \frac{\text{AB}}{\text{AC}}

Sin(38.4)° = \frac{18}{y}

y = \frac{18}{\text{Sin}38.4}

y = 28.978 ≈ 29.0 km

Therefore, distance between Fire and Running deer is 29 kilometers.
