People from two houses 9,000 feet apart are looking up at a plane that is BETWEEN them. House 1 is west of the plane has an angl
1 answer:
The distance between the plane and house 1 is 4899.2 feet
<h3>How to determine the distance between the plane and house 1?</h3>See attachment for illustration of the question, where x represents the distance between the plane and house 1
Start by calculating the angle A using:
A = 180 - 17.5 - 18.8 ----- (angles in a triangle theorem)
This gives
A = 143.7
The distance x is then calculated using the following sine theorem
a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C)
Using the parameters in the diagram, we have:
x/sin(18.8) = 9000/sin(143.7)
Multiply both sides by sin(18.8)
x= sin(18.8) * 9000/sin(143.7)
Evaluate
x = 4899.2
Hence, the distance between the plane and house 1 is 4899.2 feet
