Answer:

4.02°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle of descent can be obtained using trigonometry ;

Since we have a right angled triangle ;

Let's use the relation:

Sin θ = opposite / hypotenus

Hypotenus = 2.7 miles

1 mile = 5280 feets

2.7 miles = (2.7 * 5280) = 14256 feets

Sin θ = 1000 / 14256

Sin θ = 0.0701459

θ = sin^-1(0.0701459)

θ = 4.0223674
