What is the distance to the earth’s horizon from point p?

156.7 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius and the tangent at the point of contact form a right angle so we can apply the Pythagoras theorem:

( 3959 + 3.1)^2 = x^2 + 3959^2

x^2 =  3962.1^2 - 3959^2

x^2 =  24555.41

x =  156.7 miles.

the answer on e2020 is

10

4/5

3/5

4/3

step-by-step explanation:

it is a. 4.2 because 7.6-3.4 gets the remaining length of 4.2. i might be wrong but i am pretty sure this is the answer.
