What is the distance between points M and N?

By using <em>triangle</em> properties and the law of the cosine twice, we find that the distance between points M and N is approximately 9.8 meters.

<h3>How to determine the distance between two points</h3>

In this problem we must determine the distance between two points that are part of a triangle and we can take advantage of properties of triangles to find it. First, we determine the measure of angle L by the law of the cosine:

\cos L = \frac{(19.6\,m)^{2}-(14.8\,m)^{2}-(21.4\,m)^{2}}{-2\cdot (14.8\,m)\cdot (21.4\,m)}

L ≈ 62.464°

Then, we get the distance between points M and N by the law of the cosine once again:

MN = \sqrt{(7.4\,m)^{2}+(10.7\,m)^{2}-2\cdot (7.4\,m)\cdot (10.7\,m)\cdot \cos 62.464^{\circ}}

MN ≈ 9.8 m

By using <em>triangle</em> properties and the law of the cosine twice, we find that the distance between points M and N is approximately 9.8 meters.

Mama L [17]

Answer:

Let the current speed be "c";

Then the boat speed in still wate is "5c":

-----------------------

Upstream speed:

distance = 12 miles ; rate = 5c-c = 4c mph ; time = 12/4c = 3/c hrs

---------------------------

Downstream speed:

distance = 12 miles ; rate = 5c+c = 6c mph ; time = 12/6c = 2/c hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation:

time + time = 2 1/2 hrs

3/c + 2/c = 5/2

Multiply thru by 2c to get:

6 + 4 = 5c

c = 2 mph (speed of the current)

5c = 10 mph (speed of the boat in still water)
