Question

Person a & person b travel from same point. the person a moves 8 km to south & turns at 30° angle & goes north. person b moves about x km towards east & turns 60 & heads towards north. then find out at what height the two men meet from the origin & distance travelled by person b before he turns to north.​

Answer 1

the distance at both people will meet is 4.6 km

step by step explanation

the point at which both people meet is found by using the formula

Tan (θ) = perpendicular/base

Tan (30°) = x/8=4.6 km

this is because the person traveled  8 km to south and then making and angle of 30° turned north

distance traveled by the person b is found out as

Cos (θ) = base/ hypotenuse  

Cos (60°) = 4.6/y=9.2 km

13.8 km is the total distance traveled by person b but he traveled 4.6 km before he turned north

Answer 2

Answer:

the answer is 4.6 km.
