what is the approximate height of the cloud above or below the aircraft ?

Hello everyone
Anyone know how to solve this? I tried and i am getting 0 but there isn't an option for that answer.
The tilt angle of an Airborne Weather Radar (AWR) is set at +2°. If the beam width is 4° and the range of the cloud is 40 NM, what is the approximate height of the cloud above or below the aircraft when the weather return from the cloud just disappears from the screen?
