Using relations in a right triangle, considering c as the hypotenuse, we have that the length of side A is: 
<h3>What are the relations in a right triangle?</h3>
The relations in a right triangle are given as follows:
- The sine of an angle is given by the length of the opposite side to the angle divided by the length of the hypotenuse.
- The cosine of an angle is given by the length of the adjacent side to the angle divided by the length of the hypotenuse.
- The tangent of an angle is given by the length of the opposite side to the angle divided by the length of the adjacent side to the angle.
From the information given, we can build the following relation:
cos(A) = a/c.

5/6(x-1)=4
(x-1)=(4*6)/5
x-1=24/5
x=24/5 + 1
least common multiple=5
x=(24+1*5)/5
x=29/5
Answer: x=29/5
To check:
5/6(x-1)=5/6(29/5 -1)=5/6[(29-5)/5]=5/6(24/5)=(5*24)/(6*5)=120/30=4
We know that
The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side (Triangle Inequality Theorem)
Let
A------> Lincoln, NE
B------> Boulder, CO
C------> third city
we know that
in the triangle ABC
AB=500 miles
BC=200 miles
AC=x
Applying the Triangle Inequality Theorem
1) 500+200 > x------> 700 > x------> x < 700 miles
2) 200+x > 500----> x > 500-200------> x > 300 miles
the solution for x is
300 < x < 700
the interval is------> (300,700)
the possible distances, d, in miles, between Lincoln, NE, and the third city, are in the range between 300 and 700 miles
