Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If MP bisects ∠BMS, then the line MP divides <BMS equally;

The adition postulate if therefore true;

<BMP +< PMS = <BMS and <BMP = < PMS

The equation becomes;

<BMP +< BMP= <BMS

2 <BMP = <BMS

2(2x+9) = 7x - 3

4x+18 = 7x-3

collect like terms

4x-7x = -3-18

-3x = -21

x = 21/3

x = 7

Since <BMP = < PMS 2x+9

< PMS = 2(7)+9

< PMS = 14+9

< PMS = 23

Hence the value of < PMS is 23

From the top of a 210 foot lighthouse located at sea level, the keeper spots a boat at an angle of depression of 23 degrees
denpristay [2]
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
