Let the distance of the engineer from the base of the building be x, then
tan 38 = 300/x
x = 300/tan 38 = 300/0.7813 = 383.98

Therefore, the distance from the engineer to the base of the building to the nearest whole foot is 384 feet.

professor190 [17]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit rule for a geometric sequence is

a_{n} = a₁ (r)^{n-1}

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

Here a₁ = 64 and r = \frac{a_{2} }{a_{1} } = \frac{128}{64} = 2 , then

a_{n} = 64 (2)^{n-1} → B
