Hailey is scuba diving in the ocean. her boat is anchored 300 feet away at a 30° angle of depression. if her diving partner is 25 feet directly below her, how far is hailey's diving partner from the boat? (round to nearest whole number)

the answer is actually 313 ft not a single person has answered the correct answer... smh

Explanation:

313 ft

sinΘ = opp/hyp

Hailey's depth: x = 300sin30 = 150

partner's depth = 150 + 25 = 175

then, find horizontal distance

300^2 = 150^2 + b^2

b = 150 x square root of 3

then,

c^2 = (150 x square root of 3)^2 + (175)^2

c = 313.25

i think this could be a possible answer (1 / 84) -1

good luck! : d
