Answer:

19.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is represented in the image attached.

∠A = 45°, ∠B = 45° + (216° - 180°) = 81°

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)

45° + 81° + ∠C = 180°

126 + ∠C = 180

∠C = 180 - 126

∠C = 54°

The sine rule states that for a triangle with sides a, b, c and their corresponding opposite angles A, B and C. The following rule holds:

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

b = length of beginning of submarine to end point. Using sine rule:

\frac{b}{sin(81)} =\frac{16}{sin(54)} \\\\b=\frac{16}{sin(54)}*sin(81)\\\\b=19.5\ miles

Step-by-step explanation:

distance walked by him = 1/ 3 miles

time taken in doing so = 3/ 4 hrs.

speed \: acquired \: by \: him \:   =  \frac{distance}{time}

=  \frac{ \frac{1}{3} }{ \frac{3}{4} }  \\  =   \frac{ 1}{3}  \times  \frac{4}{3}  \\  =  \frac{4}{9}  \:  miles \:  hr^{ - 1}
