It depend on the shape of the carpet. You need to show the shape of the carpet to get an accurate answer on your question.
So you can use tan here, which is opposite/adjacent. (We're looking for the Adjacent)
Since we know Trail E is 1700, we're looking for the patch of trail A that is the adjacent. So if we put 42 into a tan calculator we get about 0.9.
So that means that 1,700 / adjacent = 0.9.
So we can also say
1,700/0.9 = adjacent
or, 1,700/0.9 = 1888.89
Now, we have the little patch of trail A in the smaller right triangle. We want to find the patch of trail A in the larger right triangle.
So just do 5,000 - 1,888.89
You get 3111.11
So if we know that's that, and we're looking for the hypotenuse, or Trail B, we can use cosine, because that's adjacent / hypotenuse.
So 42 in a cosine calculator is 0.74 ish.
So 3111.11 / hypotenuse = 0.74
Or 3111.11 / 0.74 = hypotenuse
Or 3111.11 / 0.74 = 4204
So Trail C should be 4204 feet long.
1. 60 + 60*0.05 = 60 + 3 = 63;
2. 50 + 50*0.05 = 50 + 2.5 = 52.5;
