Answer:

  • NE = 62 ft
  • width = 106 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Speech to text conversion makes this problem almost unintelligible. Ordinary English writing with appropriate math symbols would probably communicate more clearly.

By similar triangles, ...

  NE/NA = CE/CO

  NE/93 = 44/66

  NE = 93·(44/66) = 62 . . . feet

The estimated width of the river is ...

  width = NE + CE = 62 + 44 = 106 . . . . feet
