A lighthouse keeper has a 10 degrees angle of depression between the horizontal light beam and the line of sight from the ship.

If the keeper is 19 m above water, how far is the ship from the base of the lighthouse?

107.75m
This is a trigonometric ratio problem. the angle of depression (10) is opposite the height (19m) and the distance is adjacent to the distance (x). opposite ad adjacent sides to the angle is a tangent problem.
tan \theta = \frac{opp}{adj}
plus in values, we know.
tan (10) = \frac{19}{x}
switch tan(10) and x using the products property.
x = \frac{19}{tan (10)}
plug in to calulator to get answer
x=107.75

L :V --&gt; W is a linear transformation. Prove each of the following (a) ker L is a subspace of V. (b) range L is a subspace of
iragen [17]

Answer:

a) Assume that x,y\in\ker L, and \alpha is a scalar (a real or complex number).

<em>First. </em>Let us prove that \ker L is not empty. This is easy because L(0_V)=0_W, by linearity. Here, 0_V stands for the zero vector of V, and 0_W stands for the zero vector of W.

<em>Second.</em> Let us prove that \alpha x\in\ker L. By linearity

L(\alpha x) = \alpha L(x)=\alpha 0_W=0_W.

Then, \alpha x\in\ker L.

<em>Third. </em> Let us prove that y+ x\in\ker L. Again, by linearity

L(x+y)=L(x)+L(y) = 0_W + 0_W=0_W.

And the statement readily follows.

b) Assume that u and v are in range of L. Then, there exist x,y\in V such that L(x)=u and L(y)=v.

<em>First.</em> Let us prove that range of L is not empty. This is easy because L(0_V)=0_W, by linearity.

<em>Second.</em> Let us prove that \alpha u is on the range of L.

\alpha u = \alpha L(x) = L(\alpha x) = L(z).

Then, there exist an element z\in V such that L(z)=\alpha u. Thus \alpha u is in the range of L.

<em>Third.</em> Let us prove that u+v is in the range of L.

u+v = L(x)+L(y) = L(x+y)=L(z).

Then, there exist an element z\in V such that L(z)= u +v. Thus u +v is in the range of L.

Notice that in this second part of the problem we used the linearity in the reverse order, compared with the first part of the exercise.
