Check Mark

Answer to Problem 46SPR

The height of airplane above the sea level after flying 50 miles is 6⋅058 miles .

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The given constant angle of elevation is 3⋅5° .

Calculation:

Using the following figure.

  Geometry, Student Edition, Chapter 9.2, Problem 46SPR

Calculate the value of DE .

  DECD=tan(3⋅5°)DE=CD⋅tan(3⋅5°)DE=50⋅(0⋅061163)DE=3⋅058

Total height from the sea level.

  =BD+DE=3+3⋅058=6⋅058 miles

Therefore, the height of airplane above the sea level after flying 50 miles is 6⋅058 miles .
