need help solving this math problem try to move dave 85 cm. make a 90 degree left turn and then go 50 cm. find what angle dave needs to turn and turn directly home?

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

180 degree turn then 50 cm 90 degree right turn then 85 cm

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

but if you noticed, there is no restriction here so you can use right triangle or pythagorean theorem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would pythagorean theorm be best?

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

that would only give you the distance from the current position to the original position, but not the angle of turn

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

try drawing the problem
