Answer:

  • 4744  ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the angle of depression is same as the angle between horizontal line on the ground and the direct line from the plane to the airport (alternate interior angles).

Use tangent to find the missing length.

tan = opposite / adjacent

  • tan 34° = 3200 / x
  • x = 3200 / tan 34°
  • x = 4744

The distance is 4744  ft
