If the distance from the boat to the lighthouse is 110 meters and the angle of elevation is 44°, which of the following equations will find the height of the lighthouse? A right triangle is formed from the distance between a boat and the bottom of a lighthouse, the height of the lighthouse, and the distance from the boat to the top of the lighthouse; the angle of elevation from the boat to the top of the lighthouse is x degrees.

cos 44° = y over 110
cos 44° = 100 over y
tan 44° = y over 110
tan 44° = 110 over y
