Cos(<span>θ) < 0, so we know it would be in Quadrant 2 or 3
then csc(</span>θ) = 257, but csc(θ) =

= 257
==> sin(<span>θ) =

it is positive, so now we can determine that is in Quadrant 2
sin(</span>θ) = opp./hyp both of opp and hyp are positive but adj suppose to negative because that way it leads the cos(<span>θ) < 0
</span>cos(<span>θ) = adj/hyp
</span>Pythereom to find the adj:

cosθ =

tanθ =

cos<span>θ = </span>
Answer:
[2P-3.) ^2+(2P+3)^2[2P-3.) ^2+(2P+3)^2[2P-3.) ^2+(2P+3)^2
This is the concept of trigonometry, the distance from the foot of the ladder will be given by:
tan theta=[opposite]/[adjacent]
opposite=17 ft
adjacent=x ft
theta=37°
thus
tan 37=17/x
x=17/tan 37
x=22.56 ft
=22.6 ft (to the nearest 10th of a foot)
Answer:
are there any answer choices?
