The sailor encounters an orca surface at an angle of depression of 15 degrees.
The crows nest is 20 m horizontally from the bow (front) of the boat.
To Find :
How far in front of the boat is the orca.
Solution :

So,
Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
Result = 0.0045
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Required
Determine the result
Following Charlie's steps:
0.09 is a 2 decimal placed digit
and
0.05 is a 2 decimal placed digit
So, the product is as follows:
9 --------- 2 decimal place
5 --------- 2 decimal place
------------------------------------------
45 --------- 4 decimal place
Shifting the decimals in 45 to 4 decimal places will give us: 0.0045
<em>Hence, the final answer is 0.0045</em>
