A boat is heading towards a ligthhouse, whose beacon-light is 141 feet above the water. From point A, the boat's crew measures the angle of elevtation to the beacon, 6 degrees, before they draw closer. They measure the angle of elevation a second time from point B at some later time to be 12 degrees. Find the distance from point A to point B. Round your answer to the nearest foot if necessary.
The boat traveled 678 feet from point A to point B.
