An archaeological team is excavating artifacts from a sunken merchant vessel on the ocean floor. To help with the exploration, the team uses a robotic probe. The probe travels approximately 4,800 meters at an angle of depression of 69.3° from the team’s ship on the ocean surface down to the sunken vessel on the ocean floor. The figure shows a representation of the team’s ship and the probe. Round to the nearest thousandths.

When the probe reaches the ocean floor, how far will it be below the ocean surface? Round to hundredths.
? meters
When the probe reaches the ocean floor, what will be the horizontal distance between the ship and the probe? Round to nearest hundredth.
? meters

If the probe travels horizontally at a speed of 5 meters per second, how long will it take for the probe to be underneath the ship? Round to nearest hundredth.
? seconds

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.

it is definatly the 3rd one. very much looks like it, for a good chance, the third one would be best for you.

8(4)^8=72^feet to say that the total can conclude to 8(4) which as you know would mean 8 x 4. that equals 32w. 32^ could make a 72 answer as well. but your coefficent will remain w so your answer is 72w.
