Kapil's robot starts 70cm from its charging base. It faces the base, then turns 60 degrees clockwise, as shown. Finally, the rob
1 answer:
The distance of the robot from the charging base is gotten as; 62 cm
<h3>How to use Cosine Rule?</h3>
From the image attached showing the movement of Kapil's robot, we can use cosine rule to find the value of h which is the distance of the robot from the charging base.
The distance of the robot from the charging base is gotten by;
h = x² + b² - 2xb cos 60
h = 50² + 70² - 2*50*70 * 0.5
h = 62 cm

If we say that side "a" is the shortest (adjacent), side "b" is the second shortest (opposite), and side "c" is the longest (hypotenuse): then angle A would be 30°, angle B would be 60°, and angle C would be 90°
tan B = b/a
or
a tan B = b
they have 4 as the smallest value in all four options, so we know that a=4
4 tan 60° = b
tan 60° = √3
so, 4 tan 60° = 4√3
b=4√3
that leaves two options left, so now we find "c":
c^2 = (a^2) + (b^2)
OR
so a=4, b=4√3, and c=8
