1. Let x m be the distance between the building and Danny,
l m be the vertical distance between Sam and Danny, then (l - 20)m be the vertical distance between Cherry and Danny.
l / x = tan36°
l = xtan36° ───── (1)
(l - 20) / x = tan22° ───── (2)
Sub (1) into (2), we have
(xtan36° - 20) / x = tan22°
xtan36° - 20 = xtan22°
x(tan36° - tan22°) = 20
x = 62 (cor. to the nearest m)
So, the distance between Danny and the building is 62 m.
2. a. ∠PQR = (90° - 38°) + (90° - 52°) = 90°
So, ΔPQR is a right-angled triangle.
PQ = speed X time
PQ = 2 X (2 X 60) = 240 m
QR = speed X time
QR = 1 X (5 X 60) = 300 m
So PR = √(PQ² + QR²)
PR = √[(240)² + (300)²]
PR = √147 600
PR = 384 m (cor. to the nearest m)
b. tan∠PRQ = PQ / QR
tan∠PRQ = 240 / 300 = 4 / 5
∠PRQ = 38.6598°
So, the bearing of P from R
= N[90° - 38.6598° - (90° - 52°)]E
= N13°E (cor. to the nearest degree)
