In this case, we must use trigonometry to find the value of x:
Thus the value of x rounded to the nearest tenth is <u>8.2</u>

A triangle has points dallas, destination 1, and destination 2. the distance from dallas to destination 1 is 720 miles, and the
1 answer:
The distance from the second destination back to Dallas is 918 miles
<h3>Given</h3>A triangle has points Dallas, destination 1, and destination 2.
The distance from Dallas to destination 1 is 720 miles
The distance from destination 1 and destination 2 is 290 miles
the angle formed between Dallas, destination 1, and destination 2 is 125 degrees.
He moves from destination 1 to Dallas then destination 2
We could use cosine law to find the distance
<h3>What is cosine law?</h3>The Law of cosines or cosine law means the relation between the length of sides of a triangle with respect to the cosine of its angle. It is also called the cosine rule
=
=84100+518400-417600 cos 125
=602500-417600*(-0.5735)
=602500+239493.6
=841993.6
b=917.6 miles
≅918 miles
The distance is 918 miles he will fly from the second destination back to Dallas
