-5 is a negative number; if you plot it on the number line, it'll be 5 units to the left of the origin. +5 is a positive number; .... it'll be 5 units to the right of the origin.

A boat sails on a bearing of 77 degrees for 135 miles and then turns and sails 207 miles on a bearing of 192 degrees. Find the d

Andrew [12]

Answer:

193.53 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Please see the diagram for understanding of how the angles were derived,

Applying Alternate Angles, ABO =77 degrees

The bearing from B to C is 192=180+12 degrees

Subtracting 12 from 77, we obtain the angle at B as 65 degrees.

We want to determine the boat's distance from its starting point.

In the diagram, this is the line AC.

Applying Law of Cosines:

$b^2=a^2+c^2-2acCosB\\b^2=207^2+135^2-2(207)(135)Cos65^\circ\\b^2=37453.8654\\b=\sqrt{37453.8654} \\b=193.53\: miles$

The distance of the boat from its starting point is 193.53 miles (correct to 2 decimal places).

STALIN [3.7K]

Pedro had 1487 hits
Ricky had 1202 hits

2688/2=1344.5
285/2=142.5
1344.5-142.5=1202 (Ricky)
1344.5+142.5=1487 (Pedro)
1487-1202=285
1487+1202=2689

What is a tangent line

Mashutka [201]

In geometry, the tangent line (or simply tangent) to a plane curve at a given point is the straight line that "just touches" the curve at that point. Leibniz defined it as the line through a pair of infinitely close points on the curve
