A ship travels 55 km on a course of 27°, then
\n" ); document.write( "travels on a course of 117° for 140 km. Find
\n" ); document.write( "the distance traveled from the starting point
\n" ); document.write( "to the ending point.
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "2 sides and the angle between them is given.
\n" ); document.write( "Side a = 55
\n" ); document.write( "Side b = 140
\n" ); document.write( "The angle is 90 degrees ---> Pythagorean Theorem
\n" ); document.write( "Side c = \"sqrt%28a%5E2+%2B+b%5E2%29+=+sqrt%2822625%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "c =~ 150.4 km
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
