You are looking at the top of a building and thinking it would be great to make a zipline from the top to your current location. You measure the angle of elevation as 37 degrees and you are 123 feet from the base of the building. How long a zipline is needed if you are 6 feet tall? Include a sketch that shows all known information and clearly shows what you need to find. Show all work and give the answer rounded to the nearest tenth of a foot.

    AC approx 154ft

    Step-by-step explanation:

    COS 37 degrees = base/hypotenuse

    0.7986=123/AC

    AC=123/0.7986

    =154.019534

    AC approx 154ft
