Hello everyone!
I have an interesting problem which I have attached below. I am at a lost for where one would start with this problem or what math concepts I would need to know to solve it. I am guessing I will need some trig (hence the similar triangle note below), but other than that I am stumped. If there is anyone out there that could start me off in the right direction I would really appreciate it. Thanks much!
