A tuna Hunter is swimming on top of the water when he shoots at tuna fish with his spear gun. If the hunter shoots at a 24° angle depression and he uses 200 feet of chord to spear the fish how deep was the fish? (Please help me i need to turn this in now)

Notice that the 200 ft chord at a 24 degrees angle of depression means that you are dealing with a right angle triangle, where the chord is the hypotenuse, and the fish's depths is the side opposite the 24 degree angle. So you can use the definition of the sine function in a right angle triangle:

[tex]sin(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} \\sin(24^o)=\frac{x}{200} \\x = 200 \,*\,sin(24^o)\\x \approx 81.35\,\,ft[/tex]
