Answer:

=

412

feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle of depression is always measured from the horizontal.

A triangle is formed by the lighthouse, the ground and the boat. The angle of depression is not in the triangle, but it is equal to the angle of elevation at the boat. (Alternate angles on parallel lines)

The angle at the top of the lighthouse, inside the triangle is:

90°−27°

=63°

The distance to the boat is the side opposite the angle of

63°

while the height of the lighthouse is the adjacent side.

opposite

adjacent

=tan 63°

distance

210=tan 63°

distance=210×tan 63°=412 feet

The number 72 is between what two perfect squares? Enter a numerical answer only.
jasenka [17]
Well a perfect square looks like this:

6 x 6
2 x 2

So the number 72 is between the PRODUCT of two perfect squares such as those.

One product has to be above 72, and the other below it.

So lets multiply.

8 x 8 = 64
9 x 9 = 81

Oh look at that, 72 is between 64 and 81.
