A boat is anchored 2.2 km due south of a lighthouse. Along the shore, the town of Beachton is 16.8 km due east of the lighthouse. Enter a number in the box to correctly complete the statement. Round the answer to the nearest tenth. The distance from the boat to Beachton is 16 point 9 km

16.9 km

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram attached, we can see that the problem forms a triangle.

So, to find the distance(d) from the boat to Beachton , we can make use of Pythagoreas theorem.

Thus;

d² = 16.8² + 2.2²

d² = 282.24 + 4.84

d² = 287.08

d = √287.08

d = 16.9434

Approximating to the nearest tenth, we have;

d ≈ 16.9 km

step-by-step explanation: yes

its c or d   take a lucky guess my dude
