Will give BRAINLIEST! If the distance from the boat to the lighthouse is 120 meters and the angle of elevation is 40°, which of the following equations will find the height of the lighthouse?

A right triangle is formed from the distance between a boat and the bottom of a lighthouse, the height of the lighthouse, and the distance from the boat to the top of the lighthouse; the angle of elevation from the boat to the top of the lighthouse is x degrees.

cos 40° = 120 over 7

cos 40° = y over 120

tan 40° = 120 over 7

tan 40° = y over 120
