Triangle R S T is shown. The length of R S is 9, the length of S T is 8, and the length of R T is s. Angle R S T is 111 degrees. Law of cosines: a2 = b2 + c2 – 2bccos(A)

What is the value of s to the nearest whole number?

Radii ok and nl are perpendicular to om because of the radius-tangent theorem. by definition of perpendicular, angles kom and lnm are right angles. this means that triangles kom and lnm are right triangles. angle lmn is common to both right triangles, so by the triangles kom and lnm are similar.

Answer the questions in the attachment. a rescue helicopter is at point a and a rescue boat is at point e. the helicopter pilot spots boats in distress at points d and c, with angles as marked in the diagram. figure abce is a rectangle. the altitude of the rescue helicopter, represented by ae, is 5000 feet.
