Textbook Solutions for Trigonometry

Chapter 1.2 Problem 1.1.99

Question

Pythagorean Theorem An airplane is approaching Los Angeles International Airport at an altitude of 2,640 feet. If the horizontal distance from the plane to the runway is 1.2 miles, use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the diagonal distance from the plane to the runway (Figure 23). (5,280 feet equals 1 mile.) l.2mi Figure 23 horne Figure 24

Solution

Step 1 of 5)

The first step in solving 1.2 problem number 99 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Pythagorean Theorem An airplane is approaching Los Angeles International Airport at an altitude of 2,640 feet. If the horizontal distance from the plane to the runway is 1.2 miles, use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the diagonal distance from the plane to the runway (Figure 23). (5,280 feet equals 1 mile.) l.2mi Figure 23 horne Figure 24
From the textbook chapter THE SIX TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTIONS you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
