Answer:

So, the distance from boat to matt is 455.81535feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given height of a cliff is 305 feet

and the measurement of the angle of depression to a boat on a lake is 42 degrees

so, we can draw diagram

Let's assume

distance from boat to matt is x

We can use trig

sin(42)=\frac{305}{x}

now, we can solve for x

x=\frac{305}{sin(42)}

x=455.81535feet

So, the distance from boat to matt is 455.81535feet
