Initial: 200 feet = opp. side Angle = 17.31, adj. Side = a So tan (17.31) = opp. Side / adj. Side tan (17.31) = 200 / a --> a = 200/tan17.31 = 641.73 When stopped: adj. Still = a Opp. Side still = 200, angle = 46.41 tan46.41 = 200 / a --> a = 200/tan46.41 = 190.39 Now subtract those two distances to get the distance traveled from initial to when it stopped: 641.73 - 190.39 = 451.34 feet
