An observator is looking at a coin that is located on a swimming pool's floor with a depression Angle of 48 degrees. Knowing that the swimming pool's depth is 2.6 metres, calculate the depth that the observator can see.
(Usually when you look at a swimming pool from with a smaller depression angle, you have the impression that the swimming pool isn't deep even though it is, that is the situation in this problem)
P.S. I study in a french school in Quebec, if you don't understand something i said please tell me.
Here is an image that I made to help myself understand the problem
