An observer (o) spots a plane (p) taking off from a local airport and flying at a 29° angle horizontal to her line of sight and located directly above a tower (t). the observer also notices a bird (b) circling directly above her. if the distance from the plane (p) to the tower (t) is 6,000 ft., how far is the bird (b) from the plane (p)?

a diagram is shown with two parallel lines cut by a transversal. one angle is marked 29 degrees, one side is marked 6000 and another side is marked x.
