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.

the terms of a geometric sequence can be found by beginning with the first term and multiplying by the common ratio repeatedly. a recursive formula for a geometric sequence with common ratio r is given by an=ran−1 a n = r a n − 1 for n≥2 n ≥ 2 .
