Asurveyor, toby, measures the distance between two landmarks and the point where he stands. he also measured the angles between the landmarks in degrees. the triangle has two sides(65,55) angles (40,30) what is the distance, x, between the two landmarks? round the answer to the nearest tenth. 32.5 m 42.1 m 85.1 m 98.5 m

The Set Up:

x² = (Side1)² + (Side2)² - 2[(Side1)(Side2)]

Solution:

cos(Toby's Angle) • x² = 55² + 65² - 2[(55)(65)] cos(110°)

x² = 3025 + 4225 -7150[cos(110°)]

x² = 7250 - 2445.44x =

√4804.56x = 69.31m

The distance, x, between two landmarks is 69.31m.

Note: The answer choices given are incorrect.

98.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer the attached figure

AB = 55

AD = 65

∠ABC=40°

∠ADC = 30°

We are supposed to find the distance between the two landmarks i.e. BD = BC+CD

In ΔABC

In ΔADC

So, BD = BC+CD=42.132442+56.291651=98.424≈ 98.5

Hence the distance between the two landmarks is 98.5 m.
