A 7 footlong board is propped against wall of a house. The board forms a 60 degree angle with ground. How far is the bar of board from the wall

3.5 foot

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance from the wall, you will need to use cosine:

cos 60 = x / 7

x = 3.5 foot

step-by-step explanation:

logv3(x+2)=1

rewrite in exponential form:

logb(x) = y is equal to b^y =x

b = 3, y = 1

now solve for x:

3^1 = x+2)

x = 3-2

x = 1

see the picture for the graph.
