The Answer is C, my good friend.
Answer:
52feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The set up will be a right angle
Let the angle of depression be 30°
The height above the sea level will be the opposite
The distance of the ship from the base is x (adjacent)
Using TOA
Tan theta = opposite/adjacent
Tan 30 = 30/x
x = 30/tan 30
x = 30/0.5774
x = 51.96
x ≈ 52 feet to the nearest foot
You would do 24 times 3 and get 72 or divide 24 by 1/4=0.25
If you separate the triangles, you'll notice that both are literally the same triangle because all angles are the same.
