Towns P,Q,R and S are shown. Q is 35 km due East of P S is 15km due West of P R is 15km due South of P Work out the bearing of R
1 answer:
Answer:
Part A
The bearing of the point 'R' from 'S' is 225°
Part B
The bearing from R to Q is approximately 293.2°
Step-by-step explanation:
The location of the point 'Q' = 35 km due East of P
The location of the point 'S' = 15 km due West of P
The location of the 'R' = 15 km due south of 'P'
Part A
To work out the distance from 'R' to 'S', we note that the points 'R', 'S', and 'P' form a right triangle, therefore, given that the legs RP and SP are at right angles (point 'S' is due west and point 'R' is due south), we have that the side RS is the hypotenuse side and ∠RPS = 90° and given that =
, the right triangle ΔRPS is an isosceles right triangle
∴ ∠PRS = ∠PSR = 45°
The bearing of the point 'R' from 'S' measured from the north of 'R' = 180° + 45° = 225°
Part B
∠PRQ = arctan(35/15) ≈ 66.8°
Therefore the bearing from R to Q = 270 + 90 - 66.8 ≈ 293.2°

Answer:
The models are different.
Step-by-step explanation:
Yelania and Audrey took two cards which are 4,-6 and 4,6 respectively.
They do not lie on the same points as the sum of Yelania's cards=4-6=-2 and the sum of Audrey's cards=4+6=10.
Both -2 and 10 lie differently on the number line.
Therefore, the models are different from each other.
Answer:
They are skew lines.
Step-by-step explanation:
Which statement is true about lines a and b?
They are parallel lines.
They are perpendicular lines.
They are skew lines.
They will intersect.
As they both are in different directions they are skew lines .
Skew lines are not parallel neither they .They are also not co planar i.e they lie in different planes.
We have two plane Q and R . We have two line a and b on the different planes Q and R. Both planes are parallel but the lines a and b are in different directions. Therefore they are skew lines . They do not intersect and are also not parallel neither co planar.
