Question

Two Ships leave a harbor together traveling on courses that have an angle of 124 ° between them. If they travel 550 miles, how far apart are they to the nearest mile?

Mark M. · Accepted Answer

Assuming the velocities are equal:
Law of Cosines
d2 = 5502 + 5502 - 2(550)(550) cos 124°
 
Can you calculate d?
