2. An observer on the ground sites in plane at an angle of elevation of 41.2°. At the same time, a second observer 3000 m farther away along the same line of site measures the angle of elevation as 35°. How high is the plane? Round to the nearest 100 m.
Ratios
A ratio is a comparison between two numbers of the same kind. It represents how many times one number contains another. It also represents how small or large one number is compared to the other.
Trigonometric Ratios
Trigonometric ratios give values of trigonometric functions. It always deals with triangles that have one angle measuring 90 degrees. These triangles are right-angled. We take the ratio of sides of these triangles.
