A boat is traveling due east parallel to the shoreline at a speed of 10 miles per hour. At a given time, the bearing to a lighthouse is S70E, and 15 minutes later the bearing is S63E (see figure). The lighthouse is located at the shoreline. What is the distance from the boat to the shoreline?
Rescue A helicopter makes a forced landing at sea. The last radio signal received at station C gives the bearing of the helicopter from C as N 57.5 E at an altitude of 426 feet. An observer at C sights the helicopter and gives DCB as 12.3, how far will a rescue boat at A have to travel to reach any survivors at B (Figure 20)? Figure 20
