A man walks 4km from point x due east of point Y. The bearing of a flag point x and y are due N80°W and N40°E respectively. Find the distance of the flag pole from point y

The distance of the flag pole from point Y is 0.8 km and it is placed at an bearing of N40°E

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Sine rule shows the relationship between the sides and angles of a triangle.

The triangle formed has angles A = 10°, B = 50°, C = 120°, c = 4 km, a = distance from point y.

Hence:

a / sinA = c / sinC

a / sin(10) = 4 / sin(120)

a = 0.8 km

The distance of the flag pole from point Y is 0.8 km and it is placed at an bearing of N40°E
