Using the slope concept, it is found that:
- The minimum horizontal distance is of 14,281.5 feet.
- The maximum horizontal distance is of 15,398.6 feet.
- The slope is given by the <u>vertical change divided by the horizontal change</u>.
- It's also the tangent of the angle of depression.
In this problem, the vertical change is the altitude of 10,000 feet.
The minimum horizontal distance is with an angle of 35º, hence:
The maximum horizontal distance is with an angle of 33º, hence:
