Answer:

282.12 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find attached a graphical illustration of the question

We are given the value of the opposite side and we are to determine the value of the adjacent side. Thus, tan would be used

Tan 65 = opposite / adjacent

2.1445 = 605 / x

x = 605 / 2.1445

x = 282.12 ft
