Sin35=17000/x

xsin35=17000

x=17000/sin35

Answer:

here are numerous information's already given in the question. Based on those information's, the answer to the question can be easily deduced.

Angle at which the plane is flying in respect to the observer = 35 degree

Altitude at which the plane is flying = 17000 feet

The distance at which the plane is flying from the observer = x 

Then

x = 17000/sin 35

 = 17000/0.57357

 = 29638.93 feet

 = 29639 feet

From the above deduction, we can conclude that the correct option among all the options given in the question is the third option.

First find the slope:
The slopes of perpendicular lines must multiply to -1.
-9m = -1   ----> m = 1/9

Next, use point-slope form:
y - y1 = m(x-x1) ,   where given point (0,5) is (x1,y1)
y - 5 = (1/9)(x - 0)

Finally, solve for y to put it in slope-intercept form:
y = (1/9)x + 5
