Question

A plane rises from take off and flies at an angle 11° with the horizontal runway. When it has gained 750 feet find the distance to the nearest foot the plane has flown

Answer 1

`D=3930.632298 \approx 3930.6miles`

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Angle
`\theta=11\textdegree`

Height of plane
`h =750feet`

Generally the equation for the total distance flown is mathematically given by

`D=(h)/(sin\theta)`

`D=(750)/(sin11)`

Therefore total distance flown is

`D=3930.632298 \approx 3930.6miles`
