Answer:

The height of the lighthouse is 742.5\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

h -----> the height of the lighthouse

we know that

The tangent of angle of 68 degrees is equal to divide the height of the lighthouse by the horizontal distance from the buoy to the base of lighthouse

so

tan(68\°)=\frac{h}{300}

Solve for h

h=(300)tan(68\°)=742.5\ ft
