------- = ------
4,200 100
4,200 x 4 = 16800
100 multiply x = 100x
16800 divided by 100 = 168

The distance traveled is the hypotenuse of the right triangle formed with the ground.
sinα=400/d
d=400/sinα, we are told α=13° so
d=400/sin13 ft
d≈1778ft (to nearest whole foot)
The last one if it is talking about horizontal shifts.
