I need just the answerto all of these story problems I'm stuck on. Thanks!

1. An observer in a lighthouse 300 feet above sea level spots a ship directly offshore. If the ship is 400 feet from the coast, the angle of depression (in degrees) from the lighthouse is approximately?

2.You are at your home. If you walk 2 miles east and then 5 miles north to the store, what is your bearing from your home to the store
