*see attachement for diagram

Answer:

40.4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the part that broke away be represented as "x"

Thus, the digram makes a right triangle shape.

The closest total length of tree before the storm = x + 14 ft

Apply trigonometric function to find x.

Reference angle = 58°

Side adjacent to reference angle = 14 ft

Hypotenuse = x

Apply CAH, which is:

Cos 58 = adj/hyp

Cos 58 = 14/x

x * Cos 58 = 14

x = 14/Cos 58

x = 26.4191188 ≈ 26.4 ft

✔️closest total length of tree before the storm = x + 14 ft = 26.4 + 14 = 40.4 ft

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

y = 20   x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

1 (3x+ 2y = 58 ------------>  -3x + -2y = -58

1x + 2y = 46 -------------->    1x + 2y = 46  

                                              ____________

                                                -2x  =  -12

                                               -----------------

                                                -2x       -2x

                                                 x = 6

3(6) + 2y = 58

18 + 2y = 58

-18          -18                                    

------------------

       2y = 40

      -----  -----

       2y     2y

y = 20
