A person walks 28.8 degrees

north of east for 2.06 km.
Another person walks due north, then due
east to arrive at the same location.
How far due north would this person walk?
Answer in units of km

work: 2.06sin28.8??? Don't know where to go

d = 2.06*sin28.8 = 0.992km, Due North.

To find out how far the second person would need to walk due north, we can use trigonometry.

Let's start by finding the distance the first person walks in the north direction. Since they walk 28.8 degrees north of east, we need to calculate the north component of their displacement.

To find the north component, we can use the following trigonometric relationship:

sin θ = Opposite/Hypotenuse

In this case, the opposite side is the north component, and the hypotenuse is the total displacement (2.06 km).

So, we can calculate the north component as:

North component = 2.06 km * sin(28.8°)

Now you can use a calculator or a math software to find the value of sin(28.8°) and evaluate the equation to get the north component.

Once you have the north component, that would be the distance the second person needs to walk due north to reach the same location.

Remember to round your final answer to the appropriate number of decimal places based on the given data.
