Question

Assume two radar stations which are 39 miles apart are both tracking a plane. At a given moment, the angle between station 1 and the plane is 59.83°, while the angle between station 2 and the plane is 55.54°. With this information, how far is the plane from station 2?

Answer 1

Answer:

37.3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

180 - 59.83 - 55.54 = 64.63°

39/sin64.63 = X/sin59.83

X = 37.3157217 miles
