‼️‼️⚠️⛔️GEOMETRY please help soon due in an hour‼️‼️⚠️

Before Apollo 11 descended to the surface of the moon, it made one orbit at a distance of 3
miles above the surface of the moon. At one point in its orbit, the onboard guidance system
measured the angles of depression to the near and far sides of a huge crater. The angles measured
25 degrees to the near side of the crater, and 18 degrees to the far side of the crater. Find the
distance across the crater.
