Answer:

FD ≈ 252.8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

By applying tangent rule in the given right triangle,

tan(20°) = [tex]\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}[/tex]

tan(20°) = [tex]\frac{EF}{FD}[/tex]

0.36397 = [tex]\frac{92}{FD}[/tex]

FD = [tex]\frac{92}{0.36397}[/tex]

FD = 252.77

FD ≈ 252.8 feet
