The width of the laptop is 6 inches long.
We can solve this by drawing a triangle with three points. The first point at Fort Collins (F), the second at Cheyenne (C) and the third at Laramie (L).
The angle at F = 46.5, the angle at L = 43.6. We know the side opposite angle L = 3.2 (side FC), now we must solve for the side opposite angle F (side LC).
We can use the law of sines to solve this where:
sinA/a = sinB/b
sin43.6/ 3.2 = sin46.5/LC
LC = 3.2 (sin46.5/sin43.6)
LC = 3.37 inches
We are told 1 in = 10.6 miles, therefore:
3.37 inches x 10.6 miles/in = 36 miles from Laramie to Cheyenne.
Answer:
The larger acute angle is equal to 50.8 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve for both of the acute angles for the purpose of checking our work at the end with angle A being the top angle and angle B being the one on the base of the triangle (that's not the 90 degrees one). Determining whether to use sin/cos/tan comes from SOH-CAH-TOA.
A = cos^-1 (2√6/2√15)
However, you need to move the radical out of the denominator by multiplying √15 to the numerator and denominator. You should come up with (2√90)/30. So,
A = cos^-1 (2√90/30) = 50.768 degrees.
B = sin^-1 (2√90/30) = 39.231 degrees.
Now, we can check the work by adding the 2 angles to 90 and, if it comes to 180, it's right.
cos^-1 (2√90/30) + sin^-1 (2√90/30) + 90 = 180.
