5 miles high is one of the sides of a triangle depending on accuracy level
h^2=x^2+y^2
we don't have 2 distances
Tan A=O/a
O=a tan A
We solve for O because the angle is at the top of the line going up and we want the opposite angle that is along the ground
O=5×tan(173.7/2)=90.854033512
The distance he can see is:
90.85*2~181.7 miles

Now we need to find the distance between lines:
The north south distance between each line is 69 miles
thus the number of degrees he will see will be:
181.7/69
=2 19/30

2/4 is one you could put because 2/4 = 1/2 = 6/12, and 6/12 is less than 7/12.

Glad I could help, and good luck!

Can someone see if these are right?

I didn't get the same answers.

In this problem, 25 is your constant (the number of baby hats you already started out with).
26 will be affected by your variable, d, the number of days. With each day that passes, 26 more hats will be knit, so the expression 26d can be used. 

Set h equal to the constant + hats made per day to create an expression that you can use to solve for h:
h = 26d + 25

Now, just plug the numbers in for d to get h:
When d = 2, h = 26d + 25 = 26(2) + 25 = 77
When d = 4, h = 26d + 25 = 26(4) + 25 = 129
When d = 7, h = 26d + 25 = 26(7) + 25 = 207
When d = 9, h = 26d + 25 = 26(9) + 25 = 259

Your answers should be:
77
129
207
259
