Answer:

[tex]Height\approx 1.35\ miles[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle of elevation[tex]=25\textdegree[/tex]

It is [tex]3.2\ miles[/tex] away from the point.

If we imagine a right  triangle having an angle [tex]25\textdegree[/tex].

Hypotenuse[tex]=3.2[/tex], Opposite=Height from sea level[tex](h)[/tex]

[tex]\sin 25=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\\\\\sin 25=\frac{h}{3.2}\\\\h=3.2\times \sin 25\\\\h=3.2\times 0.4226\\\\h=1.3524\approx 1.35\ miles[/tex]
