Question

Please help with homework!
Jogger A and Jogger B start at the same point. Jogger A travels 0.9 mi due east, then turns 120 degrees clockwise, then travels another 3 mi. Jogger B travels 0.9 mi due west, then turns 115 degrees counterclockwise, then travels another 3 mi. Do the joggers end up in the same place? Explain.

Answer 1

The joggers do not end in the same point, just by analyzing that one jogger turns CW 120 degrees after 0.9 mi East and walks another 3. would leave him 0.6 mi W and 2.598 mi S. The other jug would walk .9 mi W, and then turns 115 degrees CCW, that would put this jogger North of the starting position and not south, therefore I would get to this point and say that there is no way the joggers could be at the same spot when they finish. But just for your sake the second jogger ends at 2.12 mi N and 1.22 mi E of the starting position.

Answer 2

thank youu!
