Answer:

129.3 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the solution diagram attached below :

The difference in height of the two buildings :

Building B - Building A = (654 - 480) = 174 feets

Using trigonometry :

Cosθ = opposite / Adjacent

Cos 42 = d / 174

d = 174 * Cos 42

d = 129.307

d = 129.3 feets
