Bearings are tricky and I though I had this

Mathematics
1 answer:
Leya [2.2K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

241°

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given the triangle internal angle (N) at Naples = 46°, and the side opposite a = 765 km. You are given the side b = 515 km, and asked to find an angle related to the internal angle opposite (C).

By the law of sines, the internal angle (C) at Canton is ...

sin(C)/b = sin(N)/a

C = arcsin((b/a)sin(N)) = arcsin(515/765·sin(46°)) ≈ 28.964°

The bearing from Elgin to Canton will be 270° less this angle, so is about 241°.

_____

Comment on your answer

Apparently, you added 29° to 270°, rather than subtracting. Since the direction from Elgin to Canton is south of west, the bearing angle must be between 180° and 270°. Note that a line west from Elgin will be parallel to the line east from Canton, so you can take advantage of alternate interior angles being congruent where the Elgin-Canton line crosses those parallel east-west lines.

If a square block is 17 centimeters on one side.what is the perimeter of the block?
emmasim [6.3K]
If a shape is a square, this mean that each side has the same length. This means that each side of the square has a length of 17cm. Perimeter is the length of the outer boundary of a shape or the summation (addition) of all the sides. This means that the perimeter of this square is 17+17+17+17 or 17×4 which is equal to 68cm.
I hope this helps!

A company spends 13% of its month budget on rent which total $2600 which proportion can be used to calculate the company’s total
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

20,000

Step-by-step explanation:

We can create a proportion to find the total budget. A proportion is an equation where two ratios are set equal to each other. We create two fractions using the budget and percents.

\frac{13}{100} =\frac{2600}{x}


We begin solving by cross multiplying numerator to denominator of each fraction.


13(x)=100(2600)\\13x=260000\\\frac{13x}{13}=\frac{260000}{13}  \\20,000=x

Two real solutions of tx^2+3x_7=0
Olegator [25]

The number of solutions of a quadratic equation

ax^2+bx+c=0

Depends on its discriminant

/Delta=b^2-4ac

If /Delta>0 there are two distinct solutions

If /Delta=0 there are two coincident solutions

If /Delta<0 there are no solutions.

We know that there are two real solutions (I assume you mean distinct solutions), so we know that the discriminant is positive:

A "thrift" is another name for a commercial bank. True or False
elixir [45]

A thrift is a kind of bank that arranges mortgages (mostly for home ownership) and sets up accounts to receive deposits.

The statement is actually false. The difference is in who they can borrow from and whether or not they are set up for profit. Thrifts are usually non profit.
