Two wires are attached to a pole and create similar triangles with the ground. The longer wire is attached to the ground 28 feet from the base of the pole and the shorter wire is attached to the ground 14 feet from the base of the pole. If the cosine of the angle formed by the shorter wire and the ground is , what is the length of the longer wire?
