Answer:
tan A = .3429
Step-by-step explanation:
Tangent = Opposite over Adjacent
The opposite of ∠A = 12 and the adjacent = 35
so tan A = 12/35 which equals .3428571492
The question asks us to round to four decimal places
Hence, the answer is .3429
Answer:
The distance of ship B from the Harbor is 32.26 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Equations.
I have added a visual aid of the problem. As we can see the courses of both ship to the harbor forms a triangle with ship B being the hypotenuse. Since we are given the distance of the course for ship A and the angle between both ships, we can use this information with the <u>COSINE operator</u> to solve for the length of the course of ship B.

.... flip both fractions.
.... multiply both sides by 22


So the distance of ship B from the Harbor is 32.26 miles
