Aplane is flying at an elevation of 32000 feet. it is within sight of the airport and the pilot finds that the angle of depression to the airport is 22∘. find the distance between the plane and the airport. find the distance between a point on the ground directly below the plane and the airport.

x=79,202.77 ft

Explanation:

Given

plane is at a height of 32000 ft

angle of depression is

let x the distance between the point directly below the plane and airport be x

from diagram

x=79,202.77 ft

distance between plane and airport

h=85,422.94 ft

answer: the metamorphic rocks are formed when they are exposed to high pressure and high temperatures. this happens when one of the earth's plates comes in contact with the other plate by traveling in opposite directions, straight into each other or slipping under one another. the friction that is caused by this activity results in   melting of rocks and when it cools they are known as metamorphic rocks. this process needs a controlled amount of pressure and temperature otherwise it may turn into magma.
