The angles from a line between the Coast Guard ships to a disabled ship are shown in the diagram at the right. How far is the disabled ship from each Coast Guard ship? Round your answers to the nearest foot. ( 45 degrees left corner , 35 degrees right corner, and the hypotenuse side of the triangle is 3000ft as stated) \n" ); document.write( "
