Answer:
235 Meters
Explanation:
The pictorial representation is produced and attached.
In Triangle ABC, we want to determine the distance between the Barstow and the Cauldrewi.e. B and C).
ZA + LB + 2C = 180°
45 ÷ 59 ÷ ZC = 180°
2C = 180° - 459 - 59°
/C = 76°
Using Law of Sines
C
SinA
=
SinC
323
Sin45 =
Sin76
a * Sin76 = 323 * sin45
a = (323 * sin45) ÷ Sin76 a ~ 235 meters
The distance between the Barstow and the Cauldrew is 235 meters
