Two men p and q set off from a base camp r prospecting for o, p moves 40km on a bearing 205 degree and q moves 30km on a bearing of 060 degree a. Find the distance of q from p
b. The bearing of q from p​

(a) By cosine rule, /PQ/2=202+152−2×20×15×cos145°

= 400+225−600cos145°

= 625+600×0.8192

= 491.52+625

/PQ/2=1116.52⟹/PQ/=1116.52−−−−−−√=33.41

≊33km ( to the nearest whole number)

(b) By sine rule,

sin<QPR15=sin14533.41

sin<QPR=15sin14533.41

sin<QPR=15×0.573633.41=0.2575

<QPR=14.92°

∴ Bearing of Q from P = 25° + 14.92° = 39.92°.

≊40° (to nearest whole number)

the answer to this question is in the pic

example 2 – simplify: step 1: completely factor both the numerators and denominators of all fractions. step 2: change the division sign to a multiplication sign and flip (or reciprocate) the fraction after the division sign; essential you need to multiply by the reciprocal. step 3 : cancel or reduce the fractions.
