(I NEED THIS ANSWERED QUICKLY! I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO FIRST CORRECT ANSWER!)

An airplane is flying at a height of 3.7 kilometers on a path that will take it directly over the airport. At a certain instant its slant distance from the airport is 14.2 kilometers. How far must the plane travel to be directly above the airport?

A. √187.95
B. √189.95
C. √188.95
D. √185.95

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

where

c is the greater side (the hypotenuse)

a and b are the legs

we have

----> the height of the airplane

---> slant distance from the airport

substitute

solve for b

step-by-step explanation:

if x = 2 you have to find x to finish the problem

answer: 16

step-by-step explanation: first you would add 6+6 which equals 12 then add 2+2 which equals 4. then add 12 + 4 which is 16.

hope this ^_^
