Step-by-step explanation:
From the boat, the angle through which you will raise your head to see the light house is the angle of elevation, which is .
See graph for the illustration.
The correct answer is A
Answer for the first one - it's complicated, but that maths is correct
I kind of cheated and did it a different way than they'd expect. By doing 24 squared, that gives you 576.
since both angles are 45 degrees, then the sides are equal lengths. Therefore x squared times 2 = 576.
Because of this, x squared = 576 divided by 2, which equals 288.
Therefore the square root of 288 = 12 square root 2
