Answer:

49.39 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

In Right Triangle TUV, [tex]\angle U[/tex] is a right triangle.

TU = 18.5

∠T = 68 degrees

[tex]\cos \theta =\dfrac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse} \\$Using the trigonometric formula above:\\\cos T =\dfrac{TU}{TV}\\\\\cos 68^\circ =\dfrac{18.5}{TV}\\\\$Cross multiply\\TV*\cos 68^\circ=18.5\\\\TV=\dfrac{18.5}{\cos 68^\circ}\\\\TV=49.39$ units[/tex]

The length of segment TV is 49.39 units.
