A plane flies at an altitude of 3.5 kilometers and then starts to descend when it is 60 kilometers from the runway. What is the angle of depression for the descent of the plane?
Round to the nearest degree.

Angle of depression = 3.37°

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that A plane flies at an altitude of 3.5 kilometers and then starts to descend when it is 60

kilometers from the runway.

I've attached an image of a triangle depicting this question.

From the triangle, we can find the angle of depression θ from trigonometric ratio since it's a right angle triangle.

Thus;

3.5/60 = tan θ

tan θ = 0.0583

θ = tan^(-1) 0.0583

θ = 3.37°

in mathematics, a constraint is a condition of an optimization problem that the solution must satisfy. there are several types of constraints—primarily equality constraints, inequality constraints, and integer constraints. the set of candidate solutions that satisfy all constraints is called the feasible set.

hoped i'm right lol
