Answer:
He will get a higher sales and income tax
Explanation:
just took the quiz and got it right
There are several information's already given in the question. Based on those given information's the answer can be easily deduced.
First angle of depression = 18°33'
= [18 + (33/60)] degree
= 18.55 degrees
Second angle of depression = 51°33'
= [51 + (33/60)] degrees
= 51.55 degrees
Height of the lighthouse = 200 feet
Then
Distance traveled by the boat from when it
was first noticed until it stopped = (200/tan 18.55) - (200/tan 51.55)
= (200/0.3356) - (200/1.2594)
= 594.95 - 158.81
= 436.14 feet
I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.
