    CD = x

    BC = y

    AB = 85

    BD = BC+CD = y+x

    tan (angle) = opposite/adjacent

    tan (28) = BC/AB

    tan (28) = y/85

    85*tan (28) = y

    y = 85*tan (28)

    y = 45.1953016912257

    tan (angle) = opposite/adjacent

    tan (31) = BD/AB

    tan (31) = (y+x) / 85

    tan (31) = (45.1953016912257+x) / 85

    85*tan (31) = 45.1953016912257+x

    51.0731526173427 = 45.1953016912257+x

    51.0731526173427-45.1953016912257 = 45.1953016912257+x-45.1953016912257

    5.877850926117 = x

    x = 5.877850926117

    So CD is roughly 5.877850926117 meters
