Given that,
The camera sights the stadium at a 7 degree angle of depression.
The altitude of the blimp i slide 300 m.
To find,
The line of sight distance from the camera to the stadium.
Solution,
If we consider a right angled triangle. Let x is its hypotenuse i.e. the line of sight distance from the camera to the stadium. Using trigonometry :
[tex]\sin\theta=\dfrac{P}{x}\\\\x=\dfrac{P}{\sin\theta}\\\\=\dfrac{300}{\sin7}\\\\=2461.65\ m[/tex]
So, the line of sight is at a distance of 2461.65 m from the camera to the stadium.
