Triangles
Let at arbitrary triangle have three angles fA;B;Cg and side lengths fa; b; cg where the angle is opposite the corresponding side. Use right triangle trig, law of sines, and law of cosines to compute the following triangles and nd the area of the triangle:
1. a = 5; b = 4;A = 60 3. a = 7; b = 1;A = 108
2. B = 90; b = 17; a = 3 4. A = 134; a = 38; b = 24
5. a = 21:2; b = 24:60c = 12:0 6. C = 58:4; b = 7:23; c = 22:0
7. A small plane is
ying from Chicago to St. Louis, a distance of 258 miles. After ying at 130 miles per hour for 45 minutes, the pilot nds that she is 12 o course. If she corrects the course and maintains speed and direction for the remainder of the ight, how much longer will the ight take?
8. A goose ying due west at 20 mph is initially 55.4 SE of a pond. After 1.5 hours,the pond is 66.8 NE of the goose. How far is the goose from the pond the second time?
