Step-by-step explanation:
(5.6) × 1/8
Here the unit fraction is 1/8
multiply 5.6 times 1
so its 5.6. then divide the decimal by 8
we know that 8 times 7 is 56
so 56 divide by 8 is 7
we have decimal point 1 number to the left
so we move decimal point 2 place left
Hence 5.6 divide by 8 is 0.7
Answer: 0.7
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.
