An airplane is currently flying at an altitude of 37,000 feet. The airplane is scheduled to land at an airport 100 miles away. Find the average angle at which the airplane must descend for landing. Round your answer to the nearest

degree.

4degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following

Height of the airplane = 37000feet

distance covered on landing = 100miles = 100(5280)

distance covered on landing  = 528,000feet

Using the SOH CAH TOA

sin theta = opposite/hyp

sin theta = 37000/528000

sin theta = 37/528

theta = arcsin (37/528)

theta = 4 degrees

Hence average angle at which the airplane must descend for landing is 4degrees

question:

could we have options?
