Two ships leave the same port, one at 18 mph and the other at 23 mph. If the angle between their routes is 80deg, how far apart will they be after 2 hours of travel? [Round to whole numbers]

First figure out how far each one will have gone in 2 hours. 2*18=36 2*23=46 |dw:1375885665364:dw| Then use the law of cosines.
