A guy-wire is attached to a pole for support. If the angle of elevation to the pole is 67° and the wire is attached to the ground at a point 137 feet from the base of the pole, what is the length of the guy wire (round to 2 decimal places)?
The angle = 67° and the pole is a right-angled triangle. Therefore the distance required to find (say "x) is the angle opposite the right-angle. The following equation needs to be solved:
