<h3>Answer: approximately 8600.33397283284 feet</h3>

Round this however you need to.

===========================

Work Shown:

Check out the diagram below. We have the following points

  • A = base of the tower
  • B = point on the ground directly below the airplane
  • C = top of the tower
  • D = plane's location
  • E = point used to form the angle of depression

Based on those points, we know that

  • AC = 320 = height of tower
  • BD = 7450 = height of plane
  • CE = BD - AC = 7450-320 = 7130 = difference between the two heights

Which allows us to find the distance from C to D. Focus solely on triangle EDC. Use the sine ratio to find x.

sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse

sin(angle EDC) = CE/CD

sin(56) = 7130/x

x*sin(56) = 7130

x = 7130/sin(56)

x = 8600.33397283284 approximately

Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: σ: 2.76

Step-by-step explanation:

Count, N: 5

Sum, Σx: 125

Mean, μ: 25

Variance, σ2:  7.6

Steps

look at attached pic for formula

σ^2 = \frac{Σ(xi - μ)^{2} }{N}

\frac{(21 - 25)2 + ... + (29 - 25)2}{5}

⇒ \frac{38}{5}

⇒ 7.6

σ =  \sqrt{7.6}

⇒   2.756809750418

⇒ or 2.76
