Use the following information to solve the problem. An airport is located at point O. A short-range radar tower is located at point R. The maximum range at which the radar can detect a plane is 4 miles from point R.Assume that R is 4 miles east of O and 10 miles north of O. In other words, R is located at the point . An airplane is flying parallel to and 6 miles east of the north axis. (In other words, the plane is flying along the path
