Explanation:
A triangle is a polygon with three sides and three angles. There are different types of triangles such as isosceles triangle, scalene triangle, equilateral triangle and right angled triangle.
Sine rule states that for a triangle with angles A,B and C and corresponding opposite sides a, b, and c, the following formula holds:
Let the starting point be A, hence the side opposite to the angle = a = distance travelled in north east direction.
Let the point of 60° of northeast be B = 90° + (90° - 60°) = 120°, hence the side opposite to the angle = b = resultant displacement = 8 km.
Let C be the endpoint, hence the side opposite to the angle = c = distance travelled north = 5 km
Using sine rule:
∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180° (sum of angle in a triangle)
∠A + 120 + 32.8 = 180
∠A = 27.2°
Therefore she travelled 4.2 km in the north east direction
