Aboat is 20 ft away from a point perpendicular to the shoreline. a person stands at a point down the shoreline so that a 60° angle is formed between the closest point to the boat, the person, and the boat. how far is the person from the boat? draw a picture showing the right triangle. round your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot. show your work.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is given that Distance between a boat that is away from a point perpendicular to the shore line = 20 feet

Angle of elevation that is formed between the closest point to the boat and the person = 60°

Now, we need to find the distance between the person and the boat.

Using the trigonometric ratios,

Thus, the distance between the person and the boat is 23 feet.

560

hope this : )

step-by-step explanation:

because 1/3 is a fraction. we can tell because there is a divisor symbol between the 1 and the 3. if we were to add 2 fractions together, we would add the numerators, which is the number on top, but not the denominators, which is the number on the bottom

1/3+1/3=2/3

hope this !
