This is, roughly, what the picture looks like:
ALSO:
An airline's navigator determines that the jet is flying 475 mph with a heading of 42.5 degrees north of west, but the jet is actually moving at 465 mph in a direction of 37.7 degrees north of west. What is the velocity of the wind?
I have the answers. I want to know why.
HAVE FUN! I am more than likely dropping this class after the semester is over. I have had it with not being able to get more than a C on a test and feeling like such a god damn moron all the time even though I work my ass off.
Funny thing is, I had very little trouble with any of the assignments. It's like suddenly on the review, he is switching things up just in time for us to fuck it up on the test.

Not on the worksheet it isn't!
code:
Sin(a) Sin(b) Sin(c)
------ = ------ = ------
A B C
a,b,c are the angles, and A,B,C are the lengths of the triangle. You know all the angles, so just plug in the numbers

Law of Sines did not work. I got 9 point something for my side "B", answer key says the answer is 1 point something. [ 11-17-2003: Message edited by: Monica ]

And I am probably going to fail math! How appropriate.
code:
sin 22.5 sin 128.7
-------- = ---------
w 1.5
I got .735523 etc
uuuum no i don't think that's right!
code:
sin 28.8 sin 128.7
-------- = ---------
r 1.5
that puts r as .925938 etc

supposedly Wain is 1.78 miles from the bear and Ryan is 1.68 miles from the bear. how they got that, i don't think i'll ever know.
This is why I did not take grade 12 math...

thank you, Delid. [ 11-17-2003: Message edited by: Monica ]

This one time, at Phoenix camp:
You can't use straight law of sines when you don't have a right triangle to begin with..*digs out her old calc stuff*
Is this for Calc or Physics?
when you have a right triangle, you use
sin=Opp/hyp
cos=adj/hyp
tan=opp/adj

There was much rejoicing when 3 months wasted said this:
Now that you know what the North of East things mean, just make two arrows that the ends attach to another, make their lengths their speeds and use the cosine law.
i dunno about that dude. i'm confused again.

Ace in the Spade stumbled drunkenly to the keyboard and typed:
Umm your answers for the bear warden thing are wrong. You have legs of the triangle longer than the hypotenuse.
Considering that it isn't a 90 degree triangle, that doesn't really matter!

it's not a right triangle, it's an oblique triangle.
