Answer:

The truce ended all wars

Explanation:

The Olympic Truce or the sacred truce, is the declaration made by ambassadors for the laying down of arms and the stop of all hostilities starting from seven days before the Olympic games began and ending seven days after the games to provide safe passage for travelling athletes and also spectators to and from the Olympic games

However, the games were held during Persian wars and also during the Peloponnesian wars. As such the truce stopped mainly conflicts that have direct impact on the Olympic games and there was an attack in Olympia in 364 BC during the games.

An explorer is caught in a whiteout (in which the snowfall is so thick that the ground cannot be distinguished from the sky) whi

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

The explorer should travel to reach base camp to 5.02 Km at 4.28° south of due west.

Explanation:

Using trigonometric function like Sen(Ф), Cos(Ф) and Tan(Ф) we can get distance and direction that the explorer should travel to reach base camp. When we discompound the vector $X = 7.8*Cos(50) = 5.01 Km$ y $y = 7.8 * Sen (50) - 5.6 = 5.975 - 5.6 (Km) = 0.375 (Km)$ so that $Tan (\alpha ) = \frac{0.375}{5.01} = 4.28$ ; $\alpha = Arctang (\frac{0.375}{5.01}) = 4.28 (degree)$ to get how far we use Pythagorean theorem so $R^{2} = x^{2}+y^{2}$ so that $R=\sqrt{0.375^{2}+5.01^{2} } =5.02 (Km)$
