Answer:
Correct choice is B
Step-by-step explanation:
For the numbers -1 and 59, find the difference 59-(-1):
since 59-(-1)=60 and (two arithmetic means tells you there will be three intervals), two arithmetic means will be
- -1+20=19;
- 19+20=39.
The only correct sequence is -1, 19, 39, 59.
Answer: the distance of the boat from the foot of the lighthouse is 290.5 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
The right angle triangle ABC representing the scenario is shown in the attached photo.
Angle A is alternate to the angle of depression, hence, they are the same.
The height of the lighthouse represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle. The distance, x of the boat from the foot of the lighthouse represents the adjacent side of the right angle triangle.
To determine x, we would apply
the tangent trigonometric ratio.
Tan θ, = opposite side/adjacent side. Therefore,
Tan 11.1 = 57/x
x = 57/Tan 11.1 = 57/0.1962
x = 290.5 feet to the nearest tenth.
