Answer:
Distance between Lisa and the tree in the water = 26.5 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
From the figure attached,
Lisa is a point L, Molly is at M and a tree stick at point S.
By applying sine rule in ΔLMS,
[tex]\frac{\text{SinL}}{\text{SM}}=\frac{\text{SinM}}{LS}=\frac{\text{SinS}}{\text{LM}}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{\text{Sin(54)}}{22}=\frac{\text{Sin(103)}}{\text{LS}}[/tex]
LS = [tex]\frac{22\times \text{Sin}(103)}{\text{Sin(54)}}[/tex]
LS = 26.5 ft
Therefore, distance between Lisa and the tree in the water is 26.5 ft.
