Let the distance from the engineer to the base of the building be x, then
tan 22 = 450/x
x = 450/tan 22 = 1,113.79

Therefore the distance from the engineer to the base of the building to the nearest foot = 1,114 feet

Solve for x. 12(x+11) = 24
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

First, divide both sides by 12 to isolate the expression, x + 11

12(x + 11)/12 = 24/12

x + 11 = 2

Then, subtract 11 from both sides

x + 11 = 2

  - 11  - 11

x = -9
