The horizontal distance between the base of the skyscraper to the ship is 1145 feet.
Data;
Using trigonometric ratios, we have the value of adjacent and angle, we can easily use tangent of the angle to find the horizontal distance
[tex]tan\theta = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]
Substitute the values into the equation and solve
[tex]tan45 = \frac{x}{1145}\\ x = 1145tan45\\x = 1145ft[/tex]
