Answer:

27163 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference in the height of the balloon on the right than the balloon on the left will be 392.13 meters.

How to calculate the height?

From the information, cos 38° = AB/BC. This will be:

cos 38° = AB/BC.

cos 38° = AB/700

AB = cos 38° × 700

= 551.60 meters

Also, cos 26° = AD/1050

AD = cos 26° × 1050

AD = 943.73 meters

The difference in height will be:

= 943.73 meters - 551.60 meters

= 392.13 meters
