<h3>Answer:  383.30 feet</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

The drawing is shown below.

Notice that 23 + 67 = 90, or you could say 90-67 = 23.

Use the tangent ratio to find x.

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(23) = x/903

x = 903*tan(23)

x = 383.300759 approximately

x = 383.30

Simplify (-6)^5 how do you simplify the the exponent expression
Papessa [141]
X^m means x times itself m times

(-6)^5 means -6 time itself 5 times
simplify it says
remember that
(mn)^x=(m^x)(n^x)
undistribute the -1
(-6)^5=(-1)^5 times (6^5)
(-1)^5=-1 since it is odd power
can be simplified to
-6^5
(note, -6^5 vs (-6)^5 PEMDAS)
