A ship sets off on a bearing of 072 degrees from port and travels 3.4km in a straight line. How far north of the ship's starting position is its final position? Give your answer to two decimal places.
From SOHCAHTOA we choose CAH based on trianglecos(theta)= adjacent / hypcos(72)=x / 3.4 3.4cos(72)=xOn calculator find x=1.0506... =1.05 (2dp)
