Answer: approximately <u>188.07</u> feet
======================================================
Explanation:
Refer to the diagram below. Note that the 62 degree angle is from the fact that 90-28 = 62.
With the reference angle 62 degrees in mind, we have an unknown opposite side x feet and a known adjacent side 100 feet.
Use the tangent trig ratio to tie the two sides together, and then solve for x.
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(62) = x/100
100*tan(62) = x
x = 100*tan(62)
x = 188.072646534633 approximately
x = 188.07 feet approximately
Your calculator needs to be in degree mode. One way to check is to compute something like tan(45) and the result should be 1.
