Can someone give me a step-by-step process on how to solve this? I know the answer I just need to know how to do it for a test:

A) The shortest possible distance will be traveled if he moves straight from one side of the bank to the next, without any diagonal movement. Thus, he should steer southeast in order to counter the flow of the river from the east and also move towards his destination in a straight line.

b) The x-component of this wind can be calculated using:
Wx = 6cos(45)
Wx = 4.24 km/hr
This is greater than the opposing flow of the river from the east. Therefore, should row in a direction due south west to counter the wind's force as well as move towards his destination.

Law of sines: How many distinct triangles can be formed for which m∠A = 75°, a = 2, and b = 3?

butalik [34]

According to the law of sines:

$\frac{a}{sin(A)} = \frac{b}{sin(B)}$

Using the given values, we can find the angle B and find the number of possible triangles that can be formed.

$\frac{2}{sin(75)}= \frac{3}{sin(B)} \\ \\ 
sin(B)=3* \frac{sin75}{2} \\ \\ 
sin(B)=1.45 \\ \\ 
B=sin^{-1} (1.45)$

The range of sin is from -1 to 1. The above expression does not yield any possible value of B, as sin of no angle can be equal to 1.45.

Therefore, we can conclude that no triangle exists with the given conditions.
