Solve Right Triangle Problem Without Knowing Bottom Line

[Jacob123]

How would I have to calculate this question for an answer, a friend of mine told me he could get the answer without knowing that the bottom line was 16 meters, I can't seem to find a way that would work, I am not sure if I am missing something or he is lying.

I'd also like to know how your friend could determine a numerical value for $d$ just knowing the angle $\theta = 0.19$ with no other information.
If he let's you know how, post back and enlighten me.

Using the angle, $\theta$, value and the 16 meters ...

$\cos{\theta} = \dfrac{16}{d} \implies d = \dfrac{16}{\cos{\theta}}$
