Answer:
The answer to this problem is 54.33 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem is best illustrated in the photo attached below.
Let x = distance of boat to the light house
Using the angle of depression and the height of the light house, we can solve for x.
The solution goes like this
Worthy Note: Please make sure that your calculator is in Degrees mode before you perform the calculations.
\begin{gathered}tan(28.5) = \frac{29.5m}{x}\\ x = \frac{29.5m}{tan(28.5)}\\ x = 54.33 m\end{gathered}
tan(28.5)=
x
29.5m
x=
tan(28.5)
x=54.33m
