An observer spots a plane flying at a 42 degree angle to his horizontal line of sight. if the plane is flying at an altitude of 15,000 ft, what is the distance (x) from the plane (p) to the observer (o)

check the picture below.

make sure your calculator is in Degree mode.

hope it

step-by-step explanation:

x^(1/6) · x^(1/6) · x^(1/6)   ·x^(1/6) = x^(4/6)   since we add the exponents

4/6 can be simplified to 2/3

the simplified form is x^(2/3)
