The range of a lighthouse is the maximum distance at which its light is visible. In the figure, point A is the farthest point fr

Assuming that the radius of the Earth is 4000 miles, find the range of Marblehead Lighthouse to the nearest tenth of a mile. Enter only the number. (Hint: Notice the right triangle EAL with right angle A. Find the length EL, then subtract the radius of the Earth to find the height of the lighthouse.)
