Aliona and Zhenya are standing at the seashore 10 miles apart. The coastline is a straight line between them. Both can see the same ship in the water. The angle between the coastline and the line between the ship and Aliona is 35 degrees. The angle between the coastline and the line between the ship and and Zhenya is 45 degrees. How far is the ship from Aliona?
= 7.2 miles

Airplane A is flying directly toward the airport which is 20 miles away. The pilot notices airplane B 45 degrees to her right. Airplane B is also flying directly toward the airport. The pilot of airplane B calculates that airplane A is 50 degrees to her left. Based on that information, how far is airplane B from the airport.
= 18.5 miles
