Read the text carefully and answer the, questions:, Mary and John are very excited because they are going to go on a dive to see a sunken ship. The dive is, quite shallow which is unusual because most sunken ship dives are found at depths that are too deep, for two junior divers. However, this one is at 40 feet, so the two divers can go to see it., , They have the following map to chart their course. John wants to figure out exactly how far the boat, will be from the sunken ship. Use the information in this lesson to help John figure out the following.
