X=200cos(162+90)+350cos(260+90)

y=200sin(162+90)+350sin(260+90)

x≈282.88

y≈-250.99

So the length of the return trip is:

d^2=x^2+y^2

d^2≈143017.0745

d≈378.18

tanα=-250.99/282.88

α=arctan(-250.99/282.88)

α≈-41.58°  that's the standard angle relative to the positive x-axis...

We need to be going in the exact opposite direction when returning so...

180-41.58=138.42°  again this angle is standard notation.  To convert this to a bearing we need to subtract 90°...

So the bearing is 138.42-90=48.42°

So the return trip will be 378.18km on a bearing of 48.42°

(I have assumed that the bearing was relative to true north, or the positive y axis....)

What is the probability that 6 rolls of a fair die will show four exactly 5 times?
storchak [24]

Answer:

very less

Step-by-step explanation:

When rolling a fair 6 sided die 5 times there are 6^5 possible combinations.

Of those, there are 5 ways to roll exactly four sixes, and each of those ways have 5 possible results on the die which has not rolled a six, plus there is 1 way to roll five sixes. 5*5+1=26 combinations with at least four sixes.

Now, take the number of results which fit your conditions, divide by the number of possible results and you get your answer: 26/7776 which can be reduced to 13/3338, a bit less than 0.4%
