An observer (o) spots a plane (p) taking off from a local airport and flying at a 23° angle horizontal to her line of sight and located directly above a tower (t). the observer also notices a bird (b) circling directly above her. if the distance from the plane (p) to the tower (t) is 5,000 ft., how far is the bird (b) from the plane (p)? round to the nearest whole number. two parallel lines b p and o t with a transversal running through p and o. dotted red line from p to t and from b to o. angle p o t is 23 degrees and the length of p t is 5000. the length of b p is x 5429 feet 9063 feet 11,779 feet 12,788 feet
