Answer:

Distance between boat and light house = 134 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Height of light house = 46 m

Angle of elevation from boat to the top of light house = 19°

From the data given to us we can construct a right triangle ABC.

For the Δ ABC

AB= 46 m

∠C= 19°

We can apply trigonometric ratio to find side BC which is the distance of light house from the boat.

\tan19\°=\frac{AB}{BC}

Multiplying both sides by BC.

BC\tan19\°=\frac{AB}{BC}\times BC

BC\tan19\°=AB

Dividing both sides by tan 19°

\frac{BC\tan19\°}{tan 19\°}=\frac{AB}{tan 19\°}

BC=\frac{AB}{tan 19\°}

Substituting value of AB and tan 19°

BC=\frac{46}{0.344}

BC=133.59\ m\approx134\ m

Distance between boat and light house = 134 m

20/50 = 40%
So 40% are wearing hats and 60% aren't

0.6=60%

250x0.6= 150

Given: △ABC, m∠A=60° m∠C=45°, AB=8 Find: Perimeter of △ABC, Area of △ABC
jarptica [38.1K]

We are given

△ABC, m∠A=60° m∠C=45°, AB=8

Firstly, we will find all angles and sides

Calculation of angle B:

we know that sum of all angles is 180

m∠A+ m∠B+m∠C=180

we can plug values

60°+ m∠B+45°=180

m∠B=75°

Calculation of BC:

we can use law of sines

\frac{AB}{sin(C)}=\frac{BC}{sin(A)}

now, we can plug values

\frac{8}{sin(45)}=\frac{BC}{sin(60)}

BC=\frac{8}{sin(45)} \times sin(60)

BC=9.798

Calculation of AC:

\frac{AB}{sin(C)}=\frac{AC}{sin(B)}

now, we can plug values

\frac{8}{sin(45)}=\frac{AC}{sin(75)}

AC=\frac{8}{sin(45)} \times sin(75)

AC=10.928

Perimeter:

p=AB+BC+AC

we can plug values

p=10.928+8+9.798

p=28.726

Area:

we can use formula

A=\frac{1}{2}AB \times AC \times sin(A)

now, we can plug values

A=\frac{1}{2}8 \times 10.928 \times sin(60)

A=37.85570...............Answer
