メ 3. A winch is a tool that rotates a cvlinder around which a cable is wound. When the winch rotates in one direction, it draws the cable in. Joey is using a winch and a pulley (as shown in the diagram) to raise a heavy box off the floor and onto a cart. The box is 2 ft. tall, and the winch is 14 ft. horizontally from where cable drops down vertically from the pulley. The angle of elevation to the pulley is 42°. What is the approximate length of cable, to the nearest foot, required to connect the winch and the box? COS U2こ14 62
