At room temperature `(27.0^@C)` the resistance of a heating element is `100 Omega`. What is the temperature of the element if the resistance is found to be `117 Omega`, given that the temperature coefficient of the material of the resistor is `(1.70 xx 10^(-4))^@C^(-1)`.

Explanation

To solve the problem, we will use the formula for resistance change with temperature, which is given by:

\[ R_t = R_0(1 + \alpha(T - T_0)) \]

Where:
- \( R_t \) is the resistance at temperature \( T \)
