Charlie is at a small airfield watching for the approach of a small plane with engine trouble. He sees the plane at an angle of

elevation of 32. At the same time, the pilot radios Charlie and reports the plane’s altitude is 1,700 feet. Charlie’s eyes are 5.2 feet from the ground. Draw a sketch of this situation (you do not need to submit the sketch). Find the ground distance from Charlie to the plane. Type your answer below. Explain your work.

Help please i need the answer
lora16 [44]

Step-by-step explanation:

but ... you had already correctly answered the first part.

L² + W² = d²

Pythagoras ...

all you needed to do now was do the calculations. no "brainware" needed ...

30² + 10² = d²

900 + 100 = d²

1000 = d²

d = 31.6227766... ≈ 31.6 units

What is the area of the given triangle?
oee [108]

Answer: 12 square units

Step-by-step explanation: first you must count hom many units there are between points A and B, which is 4, and then count the points between B and C, which is 6.

Now that we have the units we do 6 x 4 = 24, however, you may be asking why we do not do 24 then, well if you were to be doing 6 x 4, you would be getting the area of a rectangle, and half of a rectangle is a triangle, so we have to do 24/2 which equals 12.

What is the value of y?
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

65 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

First, solve for the unknown angle( not the y's).

the angle 130 is supplementary to that angle so we will use an equation to solve it.  (supplementary means it adds up to 180 degrees)

x+130=180

 -130  -130

x      =   50           so, 50 is the measure of the interior angle

Now we have to use another equation to solve for y:

50+2y=180

-50      -50

2y      =  130

/2         /2

y     = 65

Thus, y is 65
