The given question describes a right triangle with with one of the angles as 20 degrees and the side adjacent to the angle 20 degrees is of length 5,000 feet. We are looking for the length of the side opposite the angle 20 degrees.

Let the required length be x, then

$\tan{20^o}=\cfrac{opp}{hyp}=\cfrac{x}{5,000}\\ \\ \Rightarrow x=5,000\tan{20^o}=1,819.85$

Therefore, the height of the airplane above the tower is 1,819.85 feet.
