Answer:
x=22.57 m
Explanation:
Given that
35 m in W of S
angle = 40 degrees
25 m in east
From the diagram
The angle
[tex]\theta=90-40=50^o[/tex]
From the triangle OAB
[tex]cos40^o=\frac{35^2+25^2-x^2}{2\times 35\times 25}[/tex]
[tex]1340.57=35^2+25^2-x^2[/tex]
x=22.57 m
Therefore the answer of the above problem will be 22.57 m
