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
