In the diagram, the bearings of two ships P and Q from a lighthouse L are 030 and 110 respectively. Given that P is 28 km from Q and that the bearing of Q from P is 138, find (7 marks) (a) the distance of Q from L, (b) the bearing of L from Q.

8. In the diagram, the bearing of B from A is 072, and the bearing of C from B is 146. If AB = BC, find the bearing of (7 marks) (a) A from B, (b) A from C. 9. From a lighthouse A, the bearing of two ships B and C are 046 and 320 respectively. If AB = 458 m and AC = 625 m, calculate the distance of BC and the bearing of B from C. (8 marks) 10. Write down the 5 formulas that you learned in Chapter 10 and 11. (5 marks) 11. ABCD is a parallelogram in which BC = 13 cm. H and K are points on DC and AB such that AK = 12 cm, KB = 9 cm, and DH = 5 cm. (15 marks) Calculate (a) AH,

C , (b) AB

(c) The area of KBL, where L is a point on BC such that LC = 8 cm. (d) The ratio of the area of ADH to the area of ACK.

12. AB and CD are two roads which meet at X. AB runs in a north-south direction and make an angle of 38 with CD. At 09 45, a car P, which is heading south towards B, is 315 km north of the point X. At the same time, a truck Q, travelling along CD, is 200 km N 38E of X. Given that the car P is travelling at 75 km/h, and the truck Q is travelling at 60 km/h, calculate the following. (20 marks)

(a) The time at which the car passes X, (b) The distance between P and Q at 09 45, (c) The distance of P from X, and the distance of Q from X, at 15:57, (d) The bearing of Q from P at 15:57, giving your answer correct to the nearest degree. Bonus Question. Choose one question only. (10 marks) (a) Prove a.b. sin C (b) Prove cosine rule. GOOD LUCK and DONT FORGET THAT YOU HAVE TO DO 10 PUSH-UPS FOR EACH POINT YOU NEED In ORDER TO GET 80! ;)
