While sailing, Jacob is 150 feet from a lighthouse. The angle of elevation from his feet on the boat (at sea level) to the top of the lighthouse is 48° What can you conclude about the height of the lighthouse, with respect to Jacob's distance from the lighthouse? Explain your answer.

The height of the lighthouse is approximately 166.6 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the lighthouse be represented by s, then;

Tan 48° = (opposite) ÷ (adjacent)

Tan 48° = s ÷ 150

⇒ s = 150 × Tan 48°

      = 150 × 1.1106

     = 166.59

s ≅ 166.6 feet

Therefore, the height of the lighthouse is approximately 166.6 feet.
