Answer:

[tex]1,993.32\ ft[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The total distance traveled on the ski lift from the bottom to the top of the mountain is equal to

[tex]d=\frac{BC}{sin(62\°)}[/tex]

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

substitute the values

[tex]d=\frac{1,760}{sin(62\°)}=1,993.32\ ft[/tex]
