The distance between the bottom of the lighthouse and the boat is 77.6m.

<h3>What is the distance between the bottom of the lighthouse and the boat?</h3>

The lighthouse and the boat would form a right triangle. The height would be the height of the lighthouse. The distance between the top of the lighthouse and boat would be the hypotenuse. The distance between the bottom of the lighthouse and the boat would be the base.

In order to determine the required distance, Pythagoras theorem would be used.

The Pythagoras theorem: a² + b² = c²

where:
a = length
b = base
c = hypotenuse

125² = 98² + b²

b² = 125² - 98²

b = √(25² - 98² )

b = 77.6m

Please help! Name an angle adjacent and congruent to angle AOC ( diagram in picture)

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Angle DOC

Step-by-step explanation:

Since angle AOC and angle DOC are ajacent angles that form a straight line, they are supplementary to each other.

By the definition of supplementary angles, you can determine that angle AOC + angle DOC = 180.

Also notice that angle DOC is a right angle (90 degrees), so you can also determine that angle AOC is also a right angle since they are supplementary.

Softa [21]

-5/2 is equivalent to -2.5, and if you multiply 2.5 by 2 you get 5, and you have to have the negative, so add that to the 5 and you get -5. Hope this helps!
