Question:

For the following exercises, find the area of each triangle. Round each answer to the nearest tenth.

Similar to an angle of elevation, an angle of depression is the acute angle formed by a horizontal line and an observer’s line of sight to an object below the horizontal. A pilot is flying over a straight highway. He determines the angles of depression to two mileposts, 6.6 km apart, to be 37° and 44°, as shown in Figure 32. Find the distance of the plane from point A to the nearest tenth of a kilometer.
