the triangle show with sides 12 and 7 and co-contained angle of 62 degrees adjascent to 12 sides by sin law: sin@/12=sin62/7 is this correct
Answered by Reiny
I assume that the bearing is from the position of the ship. Then the angle opposite the 7 side is 18 degrees.
Sin@/12 = sin18/7
Gives you the bottom angle
