A UFO is coming in to pick up some test subjects. Their elevation above the ground is 60,000 feet. Their laser sights tell them that a direct (diagonal) path to the nearest landing area is 90,000 feet away. What is the angle of depression as they come in to land?

41.83°

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that :

The vertical distance of the UFO from the ground = 60,000 feet

The diagonal distance of the landing area to the UFO = 90,000 feet

In order to find the angle of depression, we have to use the trigonometric ratios, i.e.,

∴

     = 41.83°

question:

could we have options?

6, 10

9, -13

12, -21

18, -23

step-by-step explanation:

you just add 6 to the x-coordinate and subtract 10 from the y-coordinate.
