Question

Ralph the monkey is looking down at a 31° angle from the top of a tree. There are bananas on the ground 12.4 ft from the base of the tree. If Ralph flies down from the tree at a diagonal path, shown in the diagram by x, what distance would he travel? Round to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

Not knowing the path without a diagram, I don't have a clue.

However, the slant distance is

12.4/sin31
