Please I need help. A gas pipeline is to be constructed from a storage tank, which is right on a road, to a house which is 600 feet down the road and 300 feet back from the road. Pipe laid along the road costs $800 per foot, while pipe laid off the road costs $1000 per foot. The gas company would like to run the pipeline for the cheapest amount possible, so they have called on you (with your superior math and trigonometry skills) to help
1. Just to get yourself started, you decide to make the angle in the diagram be ฮธ = 28 โˆ˜. Answer each of the following problems based on the given angle. Do not include the units in your typed answers. We have structured the problem so you are completing one part at a time. As a result you will be using some rounded answers in your calculations. Be sure to read each part carefully.

What is the length of the pipeline OFF the road?
feet (round to two decimal places)

b. What is the cost of the pipeline OFF the road?
$ (use your rounded answer from part a)

c. What is the length of the pipeline ON the road?
feet (round to two decimal places)

d. What is the cost of the pipeline ON the road?
