From SOH CAH TOA, you know that
.. Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse
.. sin(π/3) = (5 miles)/Hypotenuse
.. Hypotenuse = (5 miles)/sin(π/3) = 5/(√3/2) miles ≈ 5.774 miles

The straight-line distance from Katie to the helicopter is about 5.77 miles.

Area of semi circle = 1/2 πr^2

= 1/ 2 x 3.14 x 15 x15

=353.25m^2
