In the triangle ABC the given lengths of its medians tc = 9, ta = 6. Let T be the intersection of the medians (triangle's centroid), and the point S is the center of the side BC. The magnitude of the CTS angle is 60°. Calculate the length of the BC side t - Centre of the hypotenuse
The interior angles of the triangle ABC, alpha, beta, and gamma are in a ratio of 1:2:3. The longest side of the AB triangle is 30 cm long. Calculate the perimeter of the triangle CBS if S is the center of the side AB.
- Three pillars
On a straight road, three pillars are 6 m high at the same distance of 10 m. At what angle of view does Vlado see each pillar if it is 30 m from the first and his eyes are 1.8 m high? - Aircraft
From the aircraft flying at an altitude of 500m, they observed places A and B (at the same altitude) in the direction of flight at depth angles alpha = 48° and beta = 35°. What is the distance between places A and B? - Mast
Mast has 13 m long shadow on a slope rising from the mast foot in the direction of the shadow angle at angle 13.3°. Determine the height of the mast if the sun above the horizon is at an angle 45°12'. - Two boats
Two boats are located from a height of 150m above the lake's surface at depth angles of 57° and 39°. Find the distance of both boats if the sighting device and both ships are in a plane perpendicular to the lake's surface. - Altitude angles
Cities A, B, and C lie in one elevation plane. C is 50 km east of B, and B is north of A. C is deviated by 50° from A. The plane flies around places A, B, and C at the same altitude. When the aircraft is flying around B, its altitude angle to A is 12°. Fi
- Two groves
Two groves A B are separated by a forest. Both are visible from the hunting grove C, which is connected to both by direct roads. What will be the length of the projected road from A to B if AC = 5004 m, BC = 2600 m, and angle ABC = 53° 45'? - Perpendicular 17423
According to the map, the scouts were supposed to proceed through the forest perpendicular to its straight edge, where the goal was 3 km away from the starting point. They already deviated from the correct direction by 5° at the start. How far from the ta - Two forces
Two forces with magnitudes of 25 and 30 pounds act on an object at 10° and 100° angles. Find the direction and magnitude of the resultant force. Round to two decimal places in all intermediate steps and your final answer. - Perpendicular 7005
A speedboat moves relative to the water at a constant speed of 13 m/s. The speed of the water current in the river is 5 m/s a) At what angle concerning the water current must the boat sail to keep moving perpendicular to the banks of the river? b) At what - Tower's view
From the church tower's view at the height of 65 m, the top of the house can be seen at a depth angle of alpha = 45° and its bottom at a depth angle of beta = 58°. Calculate the height of the house and its distance from the church.
- Resultant force
Calculate mathematically and graphically the resultant of three forces with a common center if: F1 = 50 kN α1 = 30° F2 = 40 kN α2 = 45° F3 = 40 kN α3 = 25° - Triangle KLB
