Add: 2/9 + 3/5 = 2 · 5/9 · 5 + 3 · 9/5 ·9 = 10/45 + 27/45 = 10 + 27/45 = 37/45
Answer:
7949.13 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that,
Angle of depression from the spot to the group = 39°
Height of Grand Canyon = 5000 feet.
So, we will get the following figure of a right triangle.
<em>As, 'in a right triangle, the angles and the sides can be written in trigonometric form'.</em>
We get, 
i.e. 
i.e. 
i.e. 
i.e. x = 7949.13 feet
Thus, the line of sight distance is 7949.13 feet.
