How far is Corey from the tree in the new position?

 

How many feet did Corey have to move back to get to the new position?

 

 

Round answers to the nearest hundredth of a foot

Please include all work needed to solve thank you.

Assuming the eagle is at the top of th tree:

tan 64 = opposite/adjacent       opposite = 75 ft    adjacent = distance to tree

tan 64 = 75/adj      solve for adj

 

after he moves

   tan 42 = 75/adj        solve for adj for new distance to tree  (in feet)   

           I think you can find the difference in his positions.........
