Solve the problem. -Bob is driving along a straight and level road straight toward a mountain. At some point on his trip he measures the angle of elevation to the top of the mountain and finds it to be 21° 32´. He then Drives 1 mile (1 mile = 5280 ft)more and measures the angle of elevation to be 35° 7´. Find the Height of the mountain to the nearest foot.

Solve the problem. -If an automobile is traveling at velocity V\mathrm { V } (in feet per second), the safe radius R\mathrm { R } for a curve with superelevation α\alpha is given by the formula R=V2 g(f+tanα)\mathrm { R } = \frac { \mathrm { V } ^ { 2 } } { \mathrm {~g} ( \mathrm { f } + \tan \alpha ) } , where f\mathrm { f } and gg are constants. A road is being constructed for automobiles traveling at 50 miles per hour. If α=4,g=32.4\alpha = 4 ^ { \circ } , \mathrm { g } = 32.4 , and f=0.16\mathrm { f } = 0.16 , calculate R. Round to the nearest foot. (Hint: 1 mile =5280= 5280 feet)
