<h3>Answer: Parallelogram</h3>
You could use the parallelogram rule to add the vectors, or you could use the tip-to-tail method (your textbook might call it the "head to tail method" but it's the same idea).
An example of the parallelogram method is shown below with adding the vector u = (-4,4) in red to the vector v = (8,2) in blue to get the vector w = (4,6) in green. The green resultant vector is one of the diagonals of the parallelogram
Side note: The other diagonal is either u-v or v-u depending on your reference point.
Answer:
the angle between their paths is <em>100.8°</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given information, you can construct a triangle, just like the one in the figure.
We will use the <em>Cosine Rule</em> which is:
c² = b² + a² - 2 b c cos(θ)
where
- c = 16 miles
- b = 8 miles
- a = 12 miles
Therefore,
2 b c cos(θ) = b² + a² - c²
cos(θ) = (b² + a² - c²) / 2 b c
θ = cos⁻¹( (b² + a² - c²) / (2 b c) )
θ = cos⁻¹( (8² + 12² - 16²) / 2(8)(16) )
<em>θ = 100.8°</em>
<em></em>
Therefore, the angle between their paths is <em>100.8°</em>
