A man is watching from the top of a tower a boat speeding away from the tower. The boat makes an angle of depression of
45° with the man's eye when at a distance of
60 meter from the tower. After
5 second, the angle of depression becomes
30°. What is the approximate speed of the boat, assuming it is running in still water?
