Answer:
62.73° or 1.09 radians
Step-by-step explanation:

sin = 
, so sin (?) = 
this means that ? = 
or ? = arcsin(), depending on what calculator you have
plugging in or arcsin() into calculator will get you
62.73° or 1.09 radians
use the corresponding answer depending on if the question asks for degrees or radians
76.88 I just typed it in on a calculator.
Answer:
6y
Step-by-step explanation:
The two figure are squares with the same area
side = √area = √y^2 = y (with y>0 because a length can‘t be negative)
perimeter = side * 6 = y * 6 = 6y
In solving this problem we can consider Earth to be a sphere. When we have a circle, then we can use this formula to find arc length:
Where:
L= arc length (in this problem it is disance we need to travel)
R = radius of circle (in this problem it is equal to a radius of Earth)
C = angle we need to pass
We are told that two cities lie halfway around the world. If we fly to west this means angle is 180°.
This gives an arc length of:
If we want to fly to north we need to go to 90° northern latidtude and then back to 17° latitude. This means angle is:
C=2*(90-17)=2*73°=146°
This gives an arc length of:
We can see that flying north is shorter. It is shorter by:
12440.71 miles - 10090.8 miles = 2349.91 miles
