A ship sails from port A on a bearing of 050 to port B which is 80 km to the east of A. It then sails on a bearing of 062 for 72 km until it reaches C. How far to the east of port A is port C
By calculating, ED is approximately 62.3 km. Thus, the total distance to the east from port A to port C is 80 km (A to B) + 62.3 km (B to C) = 142.3 km.
