Answer:
Approx 61.554 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are dealing with the opposite and adjacent sides, we will use tangent as our ratio.
Since the angle of elevation is 72 degrees, the left side of our equation is .
The right side of the equation is opposite over adjacent.
Set these equal to each other.
Simplify.
x is approximately 61.554.

(The image is not provided, so i draw an idea of how i supposed that the problem is, the image is at the bottom)
Ok, we have a rectangle of length x by r.
At the extremes of length r, we add two semicircles.
So the perimeter will be equal to:
Two times x, plus the perimeter of the two semicircles (that can be thought as only one circle).
The radius of the semicircles is r, and the perimeter of a circle is:
C = 2*pi*r
where pi = 3.14
Then the perimeter of the track is:
P = 2*x + 2*pi*r.
b) now we want to solve this for x, this means isolating x in one side of the equation.
P - 2*pi*r = 2*x
P/2 - pi*r = x.
c) now we have:
P = 660ft
r = 50ft
then we can replace the values and find x.
x = 660ft/2 - 3.14*50ft = 173ft
