Q8: Solve triangle ABC

  1. Find angle AA.

    The sum of angles in a triangle is 180∘180^\circ.
    Given B=21∘B = 21^\circ and C=46∘C = 46^\circ.

    A=180∘−B−CA = 180^\circ - B - C A=180∘−21∘−46∘A = 180^\circ - 21^\circ - 46^\circ A=113∘A = 113^\circ
  2. Use the Sine Rule to find side aa.

    The Sine Rule states asin⁡A=bsin⁡B=csin⁡C\frac{a}{\sin A} = \frac{b}{\sin B} = \frac{c}{\sin C}.
    We are given c=AB=9c = AB = 9 cm.

    asin⁡A=csin⁡C\frac{a}{\sin A} = \frac{c}{\sin C} a=csin⁡Asin⁡Ca = \frac{c \sin A}{\sin C} a=9sin⁡113∘sin⁡46∘a = \frac{9 \sin 113^\circ}{\sin 46^\circ}

    Using approximate values: sin⁡113∘≈0.9205\sin 113^\circ \approx 0.9205 and sin⁡46∘≈0.7193\sin 46^\circ \approx 0.7193.

    a=9×0.92050.7193a = \frac{9 \times 0.9205}{0.7193} a≈8.28450.7193a \approx \frac{8.2845}{0.7193} a≈11.52 cma \approx 11.52 \text{ cm}
  3. Use the Sine Rule to find side bb.

    bsin⁡B=csin⁡C\frac{b}{\sin B} = \frac{c}{\sin C} b=csin⁡Bsin⁡Cb = \frac{c \sin B}{\sin C} b=9sin⁡21∘sin⁡46∘b = \frac{9 \sin 21^\circ}{\sin 46^\circ}

    Using approximate values: sin⁡21∘≈0.3584\sin 21^\circ \approx 0.3584 and sin⁡46∘≈0.7193\sin 46^\circ \approx 0.7193.

    b=9×0.35840.7193b = \frac{9 \times 0.3584}{0.7193} b≈3.22560.7193b \approx \frac{3.2256}{0.7193} b≈4.48 cmb \approx 4.48 \text{ cm}

    The solved triangle has:
    Angle A=113∘A = \boxed{113^\circ}
    Side a≈11.52 cma \approx \boxed{11.52 \text{ cm}}
    Side b≈4.48 cmb \approx \boxed{4.48 \text{ cm}}

    Q9: True Bearing of the following diagrams

  4. Determine the true bearing for Diagram 1.

    The angle is 60∘60^\circ clockwise from North.
    True Bearing = 060∘\boxed{060^\circ}

  5. Determine the true bearing for Diagram 2.

    The angle is 20∘20^\circ from South towards West. True bearing is measured clockwise from North.
    From North to South is 180∘180^\circ. Adding 20∘20^\circ towards West from South gives:
    True Bearing = 180∘+20∘=200∘180^\circ + 20^\circ = \boxed{200^\circ}

  6. Determine the true bearing for Diagram 3.

    The angle is 30∘30^\circ from North towards West (counter-clockwise from North).
    To find the true bearing (clockwise from North):
    True Bearing = 360∘−30∘=330∘360^\circ - 30^\circ = \boxed{330^\circ}

    Q10: Man's displacement

  7. Analyze the first movement.

    The man travels West for 80 Km from town A.
    His position is 80 Km West of A.

  8. Analyze the second movement.

    He then travels East for 100 Km. This movement is in the opposite direction to the first.

  9. Calculate the net displacement.

    Let West be negative and East be positive.
    Net displacement = −80 Km+100 Km-80 \text{ Km} + 100 \text{ Km}
    Net displacement = 20 Km20 \text{ Km}

  10. State the final position and direction.

    Since the net displacement is positive, he is East of town A.
    He is 20 Km East\boxed{20 \text{ Km East}} from town A.
