Since the angle of depression is 10 degrees, the interior angle adjacent to the angle of depression is 90-10, or 80 degrees
Since the cosine the adjacent angle divided by the hypotenuse, we can use the cosine to help us solve this question. Divide 500 by the cosine of 80 degrees.
This may seem large, but this should be the answer for x. I hope this helps! ;)

To answer this question you will set up the proportion shown in the attached picture.
There are 2 ways to solve this.
1. You can create an equivalent ratio by determining the factor that will take you from 1 cm to 2 cm and apply his factor to the 19 miles.
The answer would be 19 x 2= 38 miles for 2 centimeters.
2. The second strategy is to use cross products to get an answer. You multiply the number diagonal from each other. See picture for this work.
