Points AA and CC lie on a straight shoreline, 100100 m apart, and a buoy BB floats offshore. At AA, the sight line to the buoy makes a 30∘30^\circ angle with ray ACAC. At CC, the sight line to the buoy makes a 45∘45^\circ angle with the shoreline continued beyond CC (away from AA). How far is the buoy from the shoreline, in metres? Give an exact answer.
