Three locations are marked next to a river. Points B and C are on the same side of the river, and point A is on the other side o

f the river. To find the distance AB across a river, a distance BC of 241 meters is laid off on one side of the river. It is found that the angle at point B is 108.6° and the angle at point C is 14.9°. Find the distance AB (across the river). Round to the nearest meter.

Answer:

74.31353

=74 m

Step-by-step explanation:

given that three  locations are marked next to a river. Points B and C are on the same side of the river, and point A is on the other side of the river. To find the distance AB across a river, a distance BC of 241 meters is laid off on one side of the river. It is found that the angle at point B is 108.6° and the angle at point C is 14.9°.

we have information about triangle ABC as side BC =241, Angle B = 108.6 and angle C = 14.9 degrees.

Hence this is an obtuse scalene triangle.

Angle ∠A = 56.5° (III angle)

Using sine formula we get

\frac{AB}{sin 14.6} =\frac{BC}{sin 56.5} \\AB = 74.31353

So distance AB is 74 metres.

A boat leaves the harbor entrance and travels 28 miles in the direction N 43° E. The captain then turns the boat 90° and travels
Serga [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A boat leaves the harbor entrance and travels 28 miles in the direction N 43° E.

Displacement in vector form

= 28 cos43 i + 28sin43j

= 20.47 i + 19.1 j

The captain then turns the boat 90° and travels another 15 miles in the direction S 47° E

Displacement

= 15 cos47 i - 15 sin47 j

= 10.22 i - 10.97 j

Total displacement

= 20.47 i + 19.1 j + 10.22 i - 10.97 j

= 30.69 i - 8.13 j

Magnitude of displacement

= 31.75 miles

Angle with east direction

TanФ = - 8.13 / 30.69

Ф = 15 degree  south of east.

Rewrite in radical form. If the number is rational, write it without using radical<br> (81)^(−1/4).
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

simplify

81^(-1/4)

= 1/81^(1/4)

= 1/[3×3×3×3]^(1/4). (factorize 81)

= 1/[3]^(4/4)

= 1/3
