Compute the distance between the submarine and the tanker

Reference no: EM131013598

A reconnaissance airplane P, flying at 18,000 feet above a point R on the surface of the water, spots a submarine S at an angle of depression of β = 21^o and a tanker T at an angle of depression of α - 33^o, as shown in the figure. In addition, ∠SPT is found to be γ = 115^o. Approximate the distance between the submarine and the tanker.
