Answer:

Horizontal distance between lifeguard and the person is 22 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A lifeguard sees a person in distress.The eye level of the lifeguard is 15 feet above the ground. Angle of depression is 34°.

To find: Horizontal distance between lifeguard and the person.

Solution : If we draw a triangle then tan∅ = $\frac{height}{base}$

Here base is the horizontal distance.

Now we put the values in the formula.

tan 34° = $\frac{15}{base}$

Or Base = $\frac{15}{tan34}$

= $\frac{15}{0.675} = 22.22 feet$

So the answer is 22 feet.
