Mathematics Open Question I Have A Calculus 3 Question I Need Help I Am So Lost In What Direction To Go

TABLE 1: Station One: Position (3500, 450, 800) Sighting 1 (30 degrees south of west, 0.83 degrees above horizontal SIghting 2 Due west, 1.32 degrees above horrizontal.
Station Two: Position:( 200, 1650,600) Sighting 1: Due south, 4.70 degrees above horizontal. Sighting two:80.5 degrees south of west, 13 degrees above horizontal.

NOTE that the stations are on hills
1) Let V1 and V2 be vectors that point from tracking stations 1 and 2 to the UFO respectively, for the first sighting. These vectors are not unique, so choose them to have the form ( Calculations should be done with at least 3 significant digits to minimize the propagation of errors.

2) FInd equations (in parametric form) of the two lines between tracking stations 1 and 2 and the UFO for the first sighting.

3) Find the point of intersection P1 between the lines in Step 2. This intersection point is the position of the UFO at the time of the first sightings. Notice that two lines in space do not necessarily intersect. However, bearings are accurate, you should find a point that very nearly lies on both lines.
