Observatory and aircraft
The aircraft flying towards the observatory was aimed at a distance of 5300 m at an elevation angle of 28º and after 9 seconds at a distance of 2400 m at an elevation angle of 50º. Calculate the distance the plane has flown in this time interval, its speed, and the change in altitude.
