PSA #2 Rugrats on a Plane Phil and Lil are jumping from a plane at the same time. The plane is 4000 feet from the ground. As Phil jumps from the plane, his angle of depression with the landing zone is 16 degrees. Lil's landing zone is closer than Phil's. The horizontal distand between the two landing zones is ,500 feet. Lil's angle of depression with the landing zone is 35 degrees. Use the information to answer the questions below: 1) What is the horizontal distance of Lil's landing zone from the plane? What is the horizontal distance of Phil's 2) landing zone from the plane? 3) What is the line of sight for both Phil and Lil's jumps? 4) What is the difference between the flight path distances?
