Boat 07
N
A coastguard sees a boat on a bearing of 038° from
him and 25 km away. He also sees a ship 42 km away
and on a bearing of 080°. Calculate:
a) the distance of the boat from the ship
b) the bearing of the boat from the ship.

the solution of the equation is 2.23 ⇒ answer b

step-by-step explanation:

* lets revise the meaning of exponential function

- the form of the exponential function is y = ab^x, where a ≠ 0, b > 0 ,  

  b ≠ 1, and x is any real number

- it has a constant base b

- it has a variable exponent x

- to solve an exponential equation, take the log or ln of both sides,  

  and solve for the variable

* lets solve the problem

∵

- the base is 7 and the exponent is x

- insert ㏑ in both sides

∴

- use the rule

∴ x ㏑(7) = ㏑(77)

- to find x divide both sides by ㏑(7)

∴

* the solution of the equation is 2.23 to the nearest 2 decimal places

d .tv

step-by-step explanation:

the side tv is included in both triangles.   this means it corresponds to itself in the transformation.

this is justified by using the reflexive property, which states that anything is congruent to itself.
