When the probe reaches the ocean floor, the horizontal distance of the probe from the team's ship on the ocean's surface will be approximately 1625 meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
tan=opposite/adjacent
tan67.4°=3900/x
2.40=3900/x
cross multiply
2.40x=3900
divide via by 2.40
2.40x/2.40=3900/2.40
x=1625
When the probe reaches the ocean floor, the horizontal distance of the probe from the team's ship on the ocean's surface will be approximately 1625 meters
