3. From the top of a 250-ft lighthouse, the angle of depression to a ship in the ocean is 60°. The ship is located at a horizontal distance d from the base of the lighthouse. a. Draw a diagram that represents this situation. Clearly label all side(s) and angle(s) with the information given. b. How far is the ship from the base of the lighthouse? Your answer must be exact and simplified (no approximations). Remember to include units.
