Answer:

22,999 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the solution diagram attached,

The altitude, h of the plane can be solved using trigonometry :

Using :

Sin θ = opposite / hypotenus

Opposite = h

Hypotenus = 47440

Sin 29 = h / 47440

h = 47440 * sin29

h = 22999.368

h = 22,999 feets

Width = w

Length = 5w

Given,

Perimeter = 276 ft

5w * w = 276

w² = 55.2

--- w = 7.429670248402684 ≈ 7.43 ft

--- l = 5w = 5*7.43 = <span>37.14835124201342 </span>≈ 37.15 ft
