-20 because 40 is a positive and spent is negative
Answer:
Is there supposed to be a picture?
Step-by-step explanation:
I’m pretty sure it’s the third one sorry if i’m wrong
Using the Sine rule,

Hence, the length of wire AP (x) is 9.14m.
For wire BP (y)m,
Sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees,


Using the side rule to find the length of wire BP,

Hence, the length of wire BP (y) is 12.31m
Therefore, the length of the wires are (9.14m and 12.31m).
You can do this by finding the lengths of RT , RS and ST using the distance formula
RT = sqrt ((0- -5)^2 + (4 - -6)^2)
= sqrt (5^2 + 10^2) = sqrt 125
RS = sqrt ((-3- -5)^2 + (-2 - -6)^2))
= sqrt ( 2^2 + 4^2) = sqrt 20
ST = sqrt 125 - sqrt 20
RS / ST = sqrt 20 / (sqrt 125-sqrt 20)
so the ratio RS:ST = 2:3
