The elongation 'α' of a planet is the angle formed by the planet, earth, and sun. It is known that the distance from the sun to Venus is 0.723 AU. At a certain time, the elongation of Venus is found to be 39.4°. Find the possible distances from the earth to Venus at that time in astronomical units (AU).
