You have to build the triangles.
They are such that:
h is the common height
x is the horizontal distance from the plane to one stone
Beta is the angle between x and the hypotenuse
Then in this triangle: tan(beta) = h / x ......(1)
1 - x is the horizontal distance from the plane to the other stone
alfa is the angle between 1 - x and h
Then, in this triangle: tan (alfa) = h / [1 -x ] ...... (2)
from (1) , x = h / tan(beta)
Substitute this value in (2)
tan(alfa) = h / { [ 1 - h / tan(beta)] } =>
{ [ 1 - h / tan(beta) ] } tan(alfa) = h
[tan(beta) - h] tan(alfa) = h*tan(beta)
tan(beta)tan(alfa) - htan(alfa) = htan(beta)
h [tan(alfa) + tan(beta) ] = tan(beta) tan (alfa)
h = tan(beta)*tan(alfa) / (t an(alfa) + tan(beta) )

Answer:
hey, there!
Step-by-step explanation:
The given is a point (-6,8) through which a line passes. And is perpendicular to the line y = 2x-4
The equation for point (-6,8) is,
(y-8)= m1(x+6)...........(i)
and given equation is y = 2x-4............(ii)
Now, from equation (ii).
slope (m2)= 2 { as equation (ii) is in the form of y= mx+c where m is a slope}.
Now, For perpendicular,
m1×m2= -1
m1×2= -1
Therefore, m1 = -1/2.
Putting, the value of m1 in equation (i).
(y-8) = -1/2×(x+6)
2(y-8)= -1(x+6)
2y - 16 = -x -6
x+2y-10 = 0......... is the required equation.
Hope it helps...
