near a freeway in dc, there are 2 cell towers 5 miles apart even though they can be 10 miles apart and still cover all the area in between. why are they so close?

Answer 2

Answer 3

i learned at school

Answer 4

Err, fix that for 10 m not 5m lol

Answer 5

one tower at each vertex since towers send signals in 3 vague directions

Answer 6

Also, as the distance from the towers increases, your signal decreases. Maybe that is another cause they are looking for. That is more of a discussion type questions

Answer 7

like those near normal roads

Answer 10

I'm thinking. Could you explain from the beginning? As far as I understand, the question is: There are radio towers placed evenly along a straight road, 5miles apart. Their signal reaches up to 10 miles. Why is it done this way?
Or am I missing something? What's the hexagon for?

Answer 11
