well I tried using the sine,cosine,and tangent equations or whatever on the airplane question but nothing seems to work on it, Im probably just forgetting to put something in my calculator but I dunno, its this one right here...if a plane is flying at an altitude of 10km, you spot the airplane at an angle of 55 degrees to the horizontal...determine the distance the airplane is from you....the answer is 12.2 km's but I dunno how to get it. if you know how to get the answer that'd be great, Im so bad at this stuff.
