... how to solve it using the law of cosines! Can someone please help me please????
It says:
A boat heads 35 degrees (does not say from where), propelled by a force of 750 lbs. A wind FROM 320 degrees exerts a force of 150 lbs on the boar. How large is the resultant force, and in which direction is the boat moving?
I have no idea how to set this up or anything!!! Can someone please walk me through this?! I would appreciate it so much! Thank you so much and I will pick a best answer TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also, can anyone tell me what type of math class you would find this in (i.e. precalc, calc 1, calc 2, linear algebra, etc.)?
