Answer:
The ship travels approximately 10.261 meters to the East.
Step-by-step explanation:
At first we introduce a graphical description of the statement as an attachment below. Let suppose that bearing is respect to the North-direction, then the change in position in the East direction is modelled by the following Trigonometric formula:
(1)
Where:
- Distance travelled by the ship, measured in kilometers.
- Bearing angle, measured in sexagesimal degrees.
- Distance component in the east direction, measured in kilometers.
If we know that and
, then the distance in the East direction is:
The ship travels approximately 10.261 meters to the East.
