The distance from the lighthouse to the boat will be given by:
tan θ=opposite/adjacent
θ=angle of depression=23
opposite= height of the lighthouse
adjacent=distance from the boat to the bottom of the light house
hence
tan 23=210/a
thus solving for a we obtain:
a=210/tan23
hence
a=494.73 ft

Calculate 3n-1 for n equals 2 to 10 explain how you know that the numbers are composite
Troyanec [42]

composite number means a number that can be formed by multiplying two smaller numbers

3n-1 for n=2, 3n-1=3*2-1=6-1=5

3n-1 for n=10, 3n-1=3*10-1=30-1=29

5 is composite because 2*2.5=5

29 is composite because 5*5.8=29
