A PAL plane takes off from Manila International Airport at an angle of 10°40'. How high will it be after it has flown a horizontal distance of 1800 meters.
Answer by ikleyn(52832) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You know the horizontal distance L = 1800 meters.
It is the leg of a right-angled triangle.
And you also know the angle = 10°40'.
It is the angle of the right-angled triangle.
You need to find the other leg of the right-angled triangle h, which is the height (the altitude).
Use the Trigonometry function tangent: = . = 1800*tan(10°40') . . .
Please complete yourself these calculations.
Good luck!
