We have a triangle where.
a=adjacent leg of A=30 ft
A=90º-(angle of depression)=90º-10º=80º
b=distance between the base of the lighthouse and the ship
tan A= opposite /adjacent.
tan 80º=b /30 ft  ⇒b=(30 ft)(tan 80º)≈170.14 ft

Answer: the distance would be 170.14 ft

What’s the answer to this question ?
Dmitry [639]
Answer = 121°

Parallelograms’ angles are all equal. So the two given are equal.

6x + 13 = 7x - 5
x = 18

Plug x back into one of the original angles

6(18) + 13 = 121

Now we know all the angles are 121°, so that’s the answer

Question 1 of 40<br> If f(x) = 4x² - 6 and g(x) = x² - 4x-8, find (f- g)(x).
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf (f-g)(x) = 3x\² + 4x - 14}

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>Given functions:</u></h3>
  • f(x) = 4x² - 6
  • g(x) = x² - 4x - 8
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Subtract both functions

(f-g)(x) = 4x² - 6 - (x² - 4x - 8)

(f-g)(x) = 4x² - 6 - x² + 4x - 8

Combine like terms

(f-g)(x) = 4x² - x² + 4x - 6 - 8

(f-g)(x) = 3x² + 4x - 14
