Answer: 2.3

Step-by-step explanation:

​

=

x

1.8

​

\cos 40=\frac{1.8}{x}

cos40=

x

1.8

​

x\cos 40=1.8

xcos40=1.8

Cross multiply.

\frac{x\cos 40}{\cos 40}=\frac{1.8}{\cos 40}

cos40

xcos40

​

=

cos40

1.8

​

Divide each side by cos 40.

x=\frac{1.8}{\cos 40}=2.3497\approx 2.3\text{ feet}

x=

cos40

1.8

​

=2.3497≈2.3 feet
