3.3cm = 0.000033km (divide by 100,000.

So, 0.000033km/yr.

0.000033 × 1,000,000

=33km

Thanks
Hope it helps

Answer:

(i) x° = 70°, y° = 20°

(ii) ∠BAC ≈ 50.2°

(iii) 120

(iv) 300

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) Angle x° is congruent with the one marked 70°, as they are "alternate interior angles" with respect to the parallel north-south lines and transversal AB.

x = 70

The angle marked y° is the supplement to the one marked 160°.

y = 20

(ii) The triangle interior angle at B is x° +y° = 70° +20° = 90°, so triangle ABC is a right triangle. With respect to angle BAC, side BA is adjacent, and side BC is opposite. Then ...

tan(∠BAC) = BC/BA = 120/100 = 1.2

∠BAC = arctan(1.2) ≈ 50.2°

(iii) The bearing of C from A is the sum of the bearing of B from A and angle BAC.

bearing of C = 70° +50.2° = 120.2°

The three-digit bearing of C from A is 120.

(iv) The bearing of A from C is 180 added to the bearing of C from A:

120 +180 = 300

The three-digit bearing of A from C is 300.
