Have you ever wondered how sailors navigated the oceans before the Global Positioning
System (GPS)? One method sailors used is called dead reckoning. How does deal
reckoning use mathematics to track locations? Could you use this method today?
1. In nautical navigation, it is common practice to use angle measures in degrees,
distances in nautical miles, and speed in knots (nautical miles per hour). The
relationship between miles per hour and knots is linear. (1 knot - 1.15078 mi/h)
Use this relationship to complete the chart to the nearest tenth of a mile.

Graph a triangle (xyz) and reflect it over the line y=x to create triangle x’y’z’. describe the transformation using words. draw a line segment from point x to the reflecting line, and then draw a line segment from point x’ to the reflecting line. what do you notice about the two line segments you drew? do you think you would see the same characteristics if you drew the line segment connecting y with the reflecting line and then y’ with the reflecting line? how do you know?
