Answer:
610.181311
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the value of or distance between kristin and the reef, we have to find out hypotenuse of the triangle.
The angle of depression is 35 and the opposite side is 250ft . the hypotenuse be x
So we calculate it with trigonometry
we know that Sin = opposite / hypotenuse so, sin 35 ° = 250 /x
By linear equation , we can solve it
x = 350 / sin 35°
x = 350 / 0.573576
x = 610.181311
so the distance between the kristin and the reef is 610.181311
