21 In the figure, a ship sails from A to B for 10 km where the bearing of B from A
is N45°E. Then it sails to C in the direction of N20°E for 15 km. Find

(a) the true bearing of C from A, correct to the nearest degree,


(b) the distance of AC, correct to 4 significant figures.
Revision Ex. Chapter 11 Page 6

(a) ∠ BAP = 45°


AP

AP = 10 cos 45°
BP
sin 45° =

BP = 10 sin 45° = RQ
∠ CBR = 70°
BR

BR = 15 cos 70° = PQ
CR

CR = 15 sin 70°

∴ AQ = AP + PQ
= 10 cos 45° + 15 cos 70°

QC = RQ + CR

= 10 sin 45° + 15 sin 70°

∠ CAQ = 60°

∴ The true bearing of C from A is 030° .


(b) AC2 = AQ2 + QC2 (Pyth. Theorem)
AC = (10 cos 45 + 15cos 70 ) 2 + (10 sin 45 + 15sin 70 ) 2
