Remember the rules of PEMDAS

1. First you want to evaluate the parentheses. (4-1) = 3

2. Square:
3^2 = 9

3. Multiply: 9*2 = 18

Your answer is C

Answer:

31.243 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you of the relationships between sides and angles in a right triangle. Using the attached figure, it is convenient to find the length of BE as an intermediate step in the solution.

Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

sin(30°) = BE/100

BE = 100·sin(30°)

Then ...

Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

tan(58°) = BE/x

x = BE/tan(58°) = 100·sin(30°)/tan(58°)

x ≈ 31.243 . . . . units

<em>Comment on the figure</em>

The intermediate problem in creating the figure was to locate point D. That was accomplished by locating point C on a line at an angle of 58° CCW from the horizontal, using point B as a center. Then D is the intersection of BC with the x-axis. BE is drawn perpendicular to the x-axis.
