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.

  Advanced Mathematical Concepts: Precalculus with Applications, Student Edition, Chapter 5.8, Problem 32E , additional homework tip  1

Calculation:

Use law of sines to find the distance between the 757 and the tower

  20000sin(6)=csin(90)

Simplify and solve for the distance.

  c=191,335.44

Thus,

191,335.44 feet between 757 and the tower

(b)

To determine

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 3 .

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.

  Advanced Mathematical Concepts: Precalculus with Applications, Student Edition, Chapter 5.8, Problem 32E , additional homework tip  2

Calculation:

Use law of sines to find the distance between the 737 and the tower

  15000sin(3)=bsin(90)

Simplify and solve for the distance.

  b=286,609.84

Thus,

286,609.84 feet between 737 and the tower

(c)

To determine

How far apart are the jets?

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.

  Advanced Mathematical Concepts: Precalculus with Applications, Student Edition, Chapter 5.8, Problem 32E , additional homework tip  3

Calculation:

Use law of cosines to find the distance between the two planes.

Use 3 because 63=3

  a=286609.842+191335.4422(286609.84)(191335.44)cos(3)

Simplify and solve for the distance between the two planes.

  a=96,059.98

Thus,

96,059.98 feet apart
