Using the diagram below, what is the horizontal distance between the control tower and the plane?

x = 664.093 m

Step-by-step explanation:

tan∅ = opposite over adjacent

Since we are trying to find the horizontal distance, that means we are dealing with the bottom length and not the hypotenuse (the diagonal length):

Our theta (∅) = 52°

Our opposite = 850 m

Our adjacent = x m

tan52° = 850/x

xtan52° = 850

x = 850/tan52°

x = 664.093 m

fa tha first one you gonna add y to both sides

it look like this

x-y+y=6+y

x=y+6

therefore your answer is

x =y+6

fa tha second one

you gonna flip tha equation

it gonna look like x-4y=y

then add 4 to both sides

it gonna look like tha

x-4 +4 =y +4

so therefore tha answer is x=y+4
