Question

A plane takes off 500 feet away from a tower. The plane takes off at an angle of

elevation of 20°. In its path is the tower of 200 feet.
Will the plane clear the height of the tower? (yes/no)


How many feet (to the nearest foot) will the plane either clear or be short of the
tower. Enter a positive value if the distance represents how far over the tower the
plane will fly. Enter a negative distance if the distance represents how much lower
the plane will be than the tower.
