Answer to Problem 49E

The horizontal distance x between airplane and first town is53613 .

Explanation of Solution

Given information: passenger sees two towns to the left of plane.

Given figure:

  Big Ideas Math A Bridge To Success Algebra 2: Student Edition 2015, Chapter 9.1, Problem 49E , additional homework tip  3

Calculation:

The objective is to find the horizontal distance x from the airplane to the first town.

From the figure, the trigonometric identity for cos250 is:

  cos250=Adjacent sideHypotenuse=x59155

Solve for x .

  x=59155*cos250=59155*0.9063077870=53612.63

Therefore, The horizontal distance x from the plane to the first town is 53613.

Reconstruct the figure as shown below:

  Big Ideas Math A Bridge To Success Algebra 2: Student Edition 2015, Chapter 9.1, Problem 49E , additional homework tip  5

From the figure, the trigonometric identity for tan150 is:

  tan150=Opposite sideAdjacent side=25000x+y

Substitute the value of x and solve for y .

  tan150=2500053613+y53613+y=25000tan15053613+y=250000.267949192453613+y=93301.27020y=93301.2702053613y=39688.27020

Therefore, the distance y between two towns is 39688 ft.
