You can draw a diagram of the situation, representing it by a right triuangle.

In the right triangle the hypotenuse is the distance indicated by the radio signal, 1503 m, and the angle is 41°.

The opposed leg to 41° is the height of the ballon.

Then you can use the sine trigonometric function.

sine (41°) = opposed leg / hypotenuse = x / 1503 m => x = 1503m * sine(41°)

=> x = 986m.

Answer: 986m

F (x) = x^2 - 2x + 1
f (x) = (-2)^2 - 2(-2) + 1
= 4 + 4 + 1
= 9
f (x) = ( 0 )^2 - 2 (0) + 1
= 0 - 0 + 1
= 1
0 = x^2 - 2x + 1
x^2 = 2x - 1 = 1
f (2) = 2^2 - 2(2) + 1
= 4 - 4 + 1
= 1
f (3) = 3^2 - 2(3) + 1
= 9 - 6 + 1
= 3 + 1
= 4
