I get a nice right-angled triangle with angles
25° and 65° , and hypotenuse of 900 m
W/900= cos25°
W = 900cos25 =app 815.7 m
S/900 = sin25
S = 900sin25 = appr 380.4 m
After walking due west,turning and walking due south a man is 900 metres from his starting point and bearing 205 degrees from it.How far did he walk(a) westward?(b)southward?
