24PRACTICE PROBLEM
Dave and Jane are standing on the same side of the street sidewalk as they wait for their school bus. Dave spotted a traffic cone on the opposite sidewalk and observed its bearing as 27.85°. Jane is 7.4 m away from Dave and saw the traffic cone at a bearing of 351.46°. Calculate the width of the street.
