Answer:
71
Step-by-step explanation:
The reference angle is always the smallest angle with the x-axis.
The nearest x axis is at 0 or another name for 0 is 360
360 -289 = 71
The reference angle is 71
We can solve this by drawing a triangle with three points. The first point at Fort Collins (F), the second at Cheyenne (C) and the third at Laramie (L).
The angle at F = 46.5, the angle at L = 43.6. We know the side opposite angle L = 3.2 (side FC), now we must solve for the side opposite angle F (side LC).
We can use the law of sines to solve this where:
sinA/a = sinB/b
sin43.6/ 3.2 = sin46.5/LC
LC = 3.2 (sin46.5/sin43.6)
LC = 3.37 inches
We are told 1 in = 10.6 miles, therefore:
3.37 inches x 10.6 miles/in = 36 miles from Laramie to Cheyenne.
