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.

100m In 9 3/5 seconds
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

Speed = 10.42 m/secs

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given with:-

Distance = 100m

Time taken = 9\frac{3}{5} secs

1) First, we need to convert the mixed number 9\frac{3}{5} to an improper fraction.

<u>Method to convert a mixed number to an improper fraction</u>

<u>a\frac{b}{c} = \frac{c*a+b}{c}</u>

Applying the above formula, we get

9\frac{3}{5} = \frac{5*9+3}{5}

= \frac{45+3}{5}

= \frac{48}{5}

2) Now we need to convert \frac{48}{5} into a decimal by dividing 48 by 5.

We get time taken as 9.6 secs

3) We need to find the speed using the below formula:-

Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time taken}

Plugging the values of Distance and Time taken into the formula, we get

Speed = \frac{100}{9.6}

= 10.416 m/secs

4) Upon rounding it to the nearest hundredth, we get

Speed = 10.42 m/secs

Solve the following quadratic equation. (x+12)^2=1 A. x = 11 and x = 13 B. x = -11 and x = -13 C. x = -11 and x = 13 D. x = 11 a
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+12)^2=1

or

(x+12)= +or - 1

when

x+12=1

x=1-12 =-11

when

x+12=-1

x=-1-12 =-13

then

x=-11 and x= -13
