A ship is stationary at sea.
A tugboat is 28 km away at a bearing of 315°, and a yacht is 21 km from the tugboat at a
bearing of 210°
Draw a scale diagram showing the positions of the three vessels.
Use a scale of 1: 350,000.
Measure the distance from the ship to the yacht to the nearest km.

step-by-step explanation:

4 + 5 7/9= 9 7/9

step-by-step explanation:

answer: option a.

step-by-step explanation:

you know that the quadrilateral opqr ( a four sided figure) is inscribed in circle. this means that all its vertices are on the circle.

then, by definition, the opposite angles of the quadrilateral are supplementary, this means that the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.

you can observe in the figure that the angles ∠opq   and the angle ∠orq   are opposite, therefore:

then, can be used to d to calculate the measure of ∠opq

x =±sqrt(1/3)

step-by-step explanation:

x+4/6x=1/x

multiply each side by 6x to get rid of the fractions

6x*(x+4/6x)=1/x*6x

distribute

6x^2 +4 = 6

subtract 4 from each side

6x^2 +4-4 = 6-4

6x^2 =2

divide by 6

6x^2/6 = 2/6

x^2 = 1/3

take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = ±sqrt(1/3)

x =±sqrt(1/3)
