As Jackson stands near a helicopter landing pad (on the ground), he sees a helicopte approaching. The altitude (height above the ground) of the helicopter is 148 meters. From the helicopter to where Jackson is standing there is an angle of depression of 42°. The direct distance between the helicopter and Jackson is meters. Round your answer to the nearest meter. Type in only the numerical part of the answer (no units).

Ratios

A ratio is a comparison between two numbers of the same kind. It represents how many times one number contains another. It also represents how small or large one number is compared to the other.

Trigonometric Ratios

Trigonometric ratios give values of trigonometric functions. It always deals with triangles that have one angle measuring 90 degrees. These triangles are right-angled. We take the ratio of sides of these triangles.
