xand y are light house. y being 20km due east of x and from a ship due south of x the bearing of y was 055°. what is the distanc
e of the ship from y and the distance of the ship from x?
1 answer:
Answer:
I) |xz| ≈ 28.6 km
II) |yz| ≈ 34.8 km
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assume that the position of ship due south of x is z (aà pictor representation of the question is attached)
|xy| = 20 km, |xz| = ?, |yz| = ?, θ(y) = 55°
Using Trigonometric ratio - SOHCAHTOA
I) Tan θ = |xz| ÷ |xy| ⇒ Tan 55° = |xz| ÷ 20
|xz| = 20 * Tan 55 = 20 * 1.428
|xz| = 28.56 km
|xz| ≈ <u>28.6 km</u>
<u />
II) Cos θ = |xy| ÷ |yz| ⇒ Cos 55° = 20 ÷ |yz|
|yz| * Cos 55° = 20 ⇒ |yz| = 20 ÷ Cos 55°
|yz| = 20 ÷ 0.574 = 34.84 km
|yz| ≈ <u>34.8 km</u>
