consider X-axis along the east-west direction and north-south direction along Y-axis
A = magnitude of distance traveled by hiker in north-east direction = 30 kilometer
θ = angle of direction of displacement of the hiker relative to x-axis or east direction = 45 degree counterclockwise
A' = component of distance traveled by the hiker along the east direction.
Since the angle is given with the x-axis, the Sin provides the component in Y-direction. hence
Using the equation
A' = A Sinθ
Inserting the values
A' = (30) Sin45
A' = 21.2 km
Answer:
A ≈ 65.8 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
Given 2 sides and the angle between them then the area (A) is
A =
bc sinA
= 0.5 × 19.9 × 10.7 × sin38.17°
≈ 65.8 m² ( to 1 dec. place )
E. no solution. hope this helps! :)
