Answer:

2839.4 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Altitude = 1200 m

Using trigonometry :

The distance from point P to the airplane :

Using trigonometric relation :

Sin θ = opposite / hypotenus

Sin θ = altitude / x

Sin θ = 1200 m / x

Sin 25 = 1200 / x

0.4226182 = 1200 / x

x = 1200 / 0.4226182

x = 2839.4423

Distance from P to airplane = 2839.4 meters

Can someone answer this please with an explanation.
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

x=92

Step-by-step explanation:

those to angles are supplementary meaning that they add up to equal 180

so you set up the equation 180=x+x-4

180=2x-4

step 1 add 4 to each side

184=2x

step 2 divide each side by 2

x=92

so the angles equal 92 and 88

A street has parallel curbs 40 feet apart. A crosswalk bounded by two parallel stripes crosses the street at an angle. The lengt
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

The distance, in feet, between the strip = 12 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached in relation with the question, we can deduce that crosswalk is a parallelogram where

CD/AB = CE/AE

CD = 40

CE = 50

AE = 15

Let AB = x

50x = 15 × 40

X = 12

 The distance, in feet, between the strip is therefore 12 feet
