(a)
To find:The distance between the 757 and the tower, if 757 is 20,000 feet from the ground and the angle of depression to the tower is
(a)

Answer to Problem 32E
191,335.44 feet
Explanation of Solution
Given information: Air Traffic Control: A 757 passenger jet and a 737 passenger jet are on their final approaches to San Diego International Airport.
Calculation:
Use law of sines to find the distance between the 757 and the tower
Simplify and solve for the distance.
Thus,
191,335.44 feet between 757 and the tower
(b)
To find:The distance between the 737 and the tower, if 737 is 15,000 feet from the ground and the angle of depression to the tower is
(b)

Answer to Problem 32E
286,609.84 feet
Explanation of Solution
Given information: Air Traffic Control: A 757 passenger jet and a 737 passenger jet are on their final approaches to San Diego International Airport.
Calculation:
Use law of sines to find the distance between the 737 and the tower
Simplify and solve for the distance.
Thus,
286,609.84 feet between 737 and the tower
(c)
How far apart are the jets?
(c)

Answer to Problem 32E
96,059.98 feet apart
Explanation of Solution
Given information: Air Traffic Control: A 757 passenger jet and a 737 passenger jet are on their final approaches to San Diego International Airport.
Calculation:
Use law of cosines to find the distance between the two planes.
Use
Simplify and solve for the distance between the two planes.
Thus,
96,059.98 feet apart
