Answer:
a. and 41.6
b. 52.1
Step-by-step explanation:
a.
Considering the left side triangle the blue dotted side is the side "opposite" to the angle given and the side 24 is the side that is "adjacent" to the angle given. The trigonometric ratio tan relates opposite to adjacent. Also, let the blue dotted side be y.
<u>Note:</u> the exact value of tan 60 is
Thus, we can write
Approximate value (rounded to nearest tenth):
b.
Considering the triangle to the right, the side "opposite" to the angle given (53 degrees) is 41.6 (just found in part (a)) and the side "hypotenuse" (side opposite to 90 degree angle) is x. The trigonometric ratio sine relates opposite and hypotenuse.
Thus we can write and solve:
Answer:
183 miles to the nearest mile.
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance =Speed X Time
Distance of Truck B from point A=45 X2 =90 miles
Distance of Truck C from point A=55 X2 =110 miles
Angles between them, BAC=132°
We want to find the Distance BC denoted by a between the trucks.
Using Cosine Rule,
a²=b²+c²-2bcCos A
=90²+110²-(2X90X110XCos132°)
=33448.79
a=√33448.79
BC=182.89 miles
The distance between the trucks is 183 miles to the nearest mile.
