Let the angle be x and it's complement be c.
Then, x = c + 88 and x + c = 90
Substitute the first equation in the second.
(c+88) + c = 90
2c+88 = 90
2c = 2
c =1
Compliment = 1
Angle = 89
Answer:
The distance between the cruise ship and the sail boat is 517 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
The cruise ship is 236 feet tall, and the sailboat is 236 tall; this means the distance between the top of the cruise ship and the top of the sail boat is
236 feet - 27 feet = 209 feet.
We also know that the angel of depression from the top of the cruise ship to the bottom of the cruise ship is 22°. This forms a right triangle as shown in the figure attached.
Now from trigonometry we get:



The distance between the cruise ship and the sailboat is 517 feet.
