Two fire rangers in watch towers that are 10 miles apart spotted a fire at the same time. the first ranger indicated that the position of the fire made an angle of 39° with the line between the towers. the second ranger indicated that it made an angle of 34° with the same line. how far is the second tower from the fire?

5.455 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the height of watch towers are same(h)

and distance between them is 10 miles

first ranger indicated angle

second ranger indicated angle

let x be the distance from second ranger to fire

thus

equating h values

10tan39=1.48429x

x=5.444  miles

the correct is answer is a 9-sided polygon!

c. (3,2,6) is the answer.
