Answer

$d = 50~cot~\theta$ We can graph $d$ on the interval $~~0.6 \leq \theta \leq \frac{\pi}{2}$

Work Step by Step

$d = (h_2-h_1)~cot~\theta$ Let $h_1 = 5$ Let $h_2 = 55$ Then: $d = (h_2-h_1)~cot~\theta$ $d = (55-5)~cot~\theta$ $d = 50~cot~\theta$ We can graph $d$ on the interval $~~0.6 \leq \theta \leq \frac{\pi}{2}$
