From the top of a 193 foot lighthouse the angle of depression to a ship in ocean is 14° how far is the ship from the base of the lighthouse give your answer to the nearest foot

774 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents how far the ship is from the base of the lighthouse.

We use the tangent ratio, which involves opposite over adjacent to find x.

To the nearest whole number, the distance is 774 ft.

in problems involving proportions, we can use cross products to test whether two ratios are equal and form a proportion. to find the cross products of a proportion, we multiply the outer terms, called the extremes, and the middle terms, called the means.
