Answer: The distance from ship B to the submarine is 1270.68 feet and the distance from ship A to the submarine is 1084.18 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Distance between Ships A and B = 1425 feet
Angle of depression from ship A to the submarine =59°
Angle of depression from ship B to the submarine = 47°
As shown in the figure below:
Remaining angle will be
So, we will use "Sine formula ":
Similarly,
Hence, the distance from ship B to the submarine is 1270.68 feet and the distance from ship A to the submarine is 1084.18 feet.
