Every day going to school, June has to go by boat (point A) over a 217m-wide river to point B (the other bank), and then from B

walk to school at point D with distance AD ​​= 170m. In fact, due to the flowing water, the boat was pushed by the water at an angle of 50 degrees and brought her to point C (the other shore). From C, June walk to school. Calculate the distance June traveled from A to D. (result rounded to the third decimal place)​

Answer:

  • 647m

Explanation:

The distance traveled by June, from A to D, is the sum of the distance from A to C plus the distance from C to D:

  • Travel from A to D = Distance AC + Distance DC.

<u>1) Find the distance AC</u>

  • Triangle ABC is a right triangle, from which you have to calculate the hypotenuse (AC), knowing angle A (50º), and its adjacent leg (217 m).
  • cos (50º) = 217m / AC
  • AC = 217m / cos (50º) = 337.59m

<u>2) Find the distance DC</u>

First, you need to calculate the side BC which is a common side of both triangles ABC and DBC.

You can use Pythagora's or a trigonometric function (tangent or sine).

  • tan (50º) = BC / 217 m ⇒ BC = 217 m × tan (50º) = 258.61 m

Now you can use Pythagora's theorem to find the distance DC, which is the hypotenuse of the triangle DBC:

  • DC² = (170m)² + (258.62)² = 95,779.41m²
  • DC = 309.48m

<u>3) Find the total distance traveled from A to D</u>

  • Travel from A to D = Distance AC + Distance DC = 337.59m + 309.48m = 647.07 m ≈ 647m.

PLZZZZ HURRY ILL GIVE BRAINLEST POINTS PLZZZZ I NEED A 100% ON THIS TEST
yuradex [85]

Answer:

y=2/3-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Two coordinate points are (-3,-3) and (3,1). If you use Y2-Y1/X2-X1, you will find the slope. Then use y=mx+b to find the equation.

More detailed:

1+3/3+3 ** It is + because when there are minus signs it turns to a plus

4/6 Then simplify it

2/3

Now that the slope is found, we need to use y=mx+b

(I used the point (3,1))  1=2/3(3)+b

                                    1=2+b

                                    -1=b

I hope this is helpful gl on the test! :)
