Find the distance traveled by the jet

Reference no: EM13535998

A jet is circling an airport control tower at a distance of 24.5 km. An observer in the tower watches the jet cross in front of the moon. As seen from the tower, the moon subtends an angle of 8.57x10-3 radians. Find the distance traveled (in meters) by the jet as the observer watches the nose of the jet cross from one side of the moon to the other.
