Jarrod walked 3 miles due north before turning left and walking 3.5 miles due west. He turned again and returned to his starting point by walking a straight path. What was the angle of the last turn? Round to the nearest degree.

Respuesta :

see the attached figure

the angle of the last turn was angle alfa in the point C
tan(alfa)=3/3.5=0.8571
alfa=arctan(0.8581)=40.60
°
Round to the nearest degree---------> alfa=41°

the answer is 41°
