From the top of a lighthouse 57 feet above sea level, the angle of depression to a small boat is 11.1°. How far from the foot of the lighthouse is the boat?

the distance of the boat from the foot of the lighthouse is 290.5 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The right angle triangle ABC representing the scenario is shown in the attached photo.

Angle A is alternate to the angle of depression, hence, they are the same.

The height of the lighthouse represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle. The distance, x of the boat from the foot of the lighthouse represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle.

To determine x, we would apply

the tangent trigonometric ratio.

Tan θ, = opposite side/adjacent side. Therefore,

Tan 11.1 = 57/x

x = 57/Tan 11.1 = 57/0.1962

x = 290.5 feet to the nearest tenth.

answer: 32.68

step-by-step explanation:

x=2

a

step-by-step explanation:

when a number is between two straight lines it means the absolute value.

to find absolute value you need to know how many numbers is that number away from 0.

when finding absolute value the number will always come out positive

so absolute value of -3 is 3

absolute value of 3/2 is 3/2

absolute value of -2 is 2

absolute value of 3.5 is 3.5

absolute value of -1 is 1

now put these numbers in order:

a)   |-1|, |3/2|, |-2|, |-3|, |3.5|
