stationed at the top of a 240m tower, observed an unidentified boat coming towards it. A clinometer or
inclinometer is an instrument used for measuring angles or slopes(tilt). The guard used the clinometer
to measure the angle of depression of the boat coming towards the lighthouse and found it to be 30°.

the boat from the foot of the observation tower.
ii) After 10 minutes, the guard observed that the boat was approaching the tower and its
