Answer 1

Answer:

• 106.36 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the distance from the point Malaya is standing to the courthouse be x and the distance to the bank is y

• x + y is the distance between the courthouse and the bank

Then we have:

• x/90 = cot 72° ⇒ x = 90 cot 72° = 90*0.3249196962 = 29.24 ft (rounded)
• y/54 = cot 35° ⇒ y = 54 cot 35° = 54*1.4281480067 = 77.12 ft (rounded)
• x + y = 29.24 + 77.12 = 106.36 ft
