The bearing of lines A and B are 16° 10` and 332° 18`, the value of the included angle BOA is:_______
1 answer:
Answer:
D. 43° 52`
Explanation:
A bearing is an angle, measured clockwise from the north direction. When solving a bearing problem, it is good to represent the bearings in the given question with diagram.
The diagrammatically representation of the bearing of lines A and B, 16° 10` and 332° 18` respectively given in the question is shown in the figure attached.
At Point A, we will calculate angle ∠BAO.
Calculating the angle ∠BAO
∠BAO = 90° - 16° 10`
= 73° 50`
At Point B, we will calculate angle ∠ABO.
Calculating the angle ∠ABO
∠ABO = 332° 18` - 270° 0`
= 62° 18`
At Point O, we will calculate the include angle ∠BOA.
Calculating the angle ∠BOA
∠BAO + ∠ABO + ∠BOA = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)
73° 50` + 62° 18` + ∠BOA = 180°
136° 8` + ∠BOA = 180°
∠BOA = 180° - 136° 8`
∠BOA = 43° 52`
The value of the included angle BOA is 43° 52

Answer:
v = 1.25 m/s
Explanation:
We have,
Distance covered by a person is 10 meters
Time taken by him to cover that distance is 8 seconds.
If we want to find the speed of a person, we must know distance covered by it and taken. In this case, we know both distance and time. His speed is given by :
So, the speed of the person is 1.25 m/s.
