A lifeguard is working at a pool sitting in his guard stand. He notices a child right below him drowning that appears to be 1.5 m below the surface of the water? How deep is the child actually? Suppose he is sees the child at a very small angle, and utilize the small angle approx. of sinθ= tanθ = θ
