There isn't any work that u can show for this, but the answer is 12
<span>4x² - 5x + 1 = 0
a = 4; b = - 5, c = 1
</span>Δ = b² - 4.a.c
Δ = (-5)² - 4.4.1
Δ = 25 - 16
Δ = 9
<span>
x = - b </span>± √Δ / 2.a



A. Two real solutions (x' = -1 and x'' = -1/4)
Hi there!
We can use right-triangle trigonometry to solve.
We are given the HYPOTENUSE and ADJACENT sides, so we must use cosine in this instance.
cosθ = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
We can plug in what is given:
cos(28) = A/17
Solve for 'A':
17cos(28) = <u>15.01 ft</u>
