Answer:

1,005 feet

Explanation:

From the diagram in the attachment
\tan 60=(1400)/(a)


\implies a=(1400)/(\tan 60)


a=808.29

Also
\tan 82=(1400)/(b)


b=(1400)/(\tan 82) =196.76

The distance between balloon A and B is a+b=808.29+196.76=1005.05 feet

When we round to the nearest feet we get: 1,005 feet

The second choice is correct.
