When the triangle is a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem. The formula would be

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

If a = 21 and c=29, thus

b^2 = c^2 - a^2
b^2 = 29^2 - 21^2
b^2 = 400
b = square root (400)
b = 20 units. 

Thus, the answer is <span>D) B = 400</span>

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

In the right triangle ABC

cos(A)=\frac{AC}{AB} -----> the cosine is the adjacent side to angle A divided by the hypotenuse

substitute the values and solve for x

cos(68\°)=\frac{x}{12}

x=12*cos(68\°)=4.50\ ft
