What is 5 pi over 3 radians in degrees? 60° 120° 210° 300°
1pi =180 degrees 5pi/3 = 300 degrees
thank you! do you mind helping me with another problem?
Okay I can help you. :3
While crossing the Atlantic, sailors spot two mermaids 120° apart on each end of an island that is 6 miles away. How far apart are the mermaids around the outer edge of the island to the nearest tenth of a mile? 12.6 miles 3.1 miles 7.2 miles 20.2 miles
This is a triangle problems. so let me draw it for you
|dw:1395002592515:dw|
Does this help?
yeah, that helped but I still don't know what the answer would be :( @BVB4rmy
\(\bf degrees = \cfrac{{\color{red}{ radians}}\cdot 180}{\pi}\implies degrees = \cfrac{{\color{red}{ \frac{5\pi}{3}}}\cdot 180}{\pi}\)
\(\bf degrees = \cfrac{{\color{red}{ radians}}\cdot 180}{\pi}\implies degrees = \cfrac{{\color{red}{ \frac{5\pi}{3}}}\cdot 180}{\pi} \\ \quad \\ \implies \cfrac{5\cancel{\pi} \cdot 60}{\cancel{\pi}}\)
I'm still lost
jdoe is trying to give you the equation to your first question.
I'm done with the first question, I'm on the mermaid one now
Have you learned Cos, Sin, and Tan
ohh ahemm
yes, but I have no idea how to do it and just need the answer :(
Uhm well I know that they have given you the angle the opposite and the adjacent
so I think it would be Tan(120) = x/6
@hoblos
ehhe
@hoblos can you help?
lemme see ahemm |dw:1395005214826:dw|
