Question

as observed from a 150 high Lighthouse the angle of depression of two ships are 30° and 45° one is exactly behind the other find the distance between them​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of lighthouse = 150

Since we have to find the distance between the ships we need the base so we will use the values of tan

tan 30 = $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$ Ship 1

tan 45 = 1 Ship 2

Distance of lighthouse and ship 1 = $150\sqrt{3}$

Distance of lighthouse and ship 2 = 150

Distance between the two ships = $150\sqrt{3}$ - 150

= 150 ($\sqrt{3}$ - 1)

= 150 ( 1.732 - 1)

= 150 (0.732)

= 109.8 (mention the unit)
