Question
A new landowner has a triangular piece of flat land she
wishes to fence. Starting at the west corner, she measures
the first side to be 80.0 m long and the next to be 105 m.
These sides are represented as displacement vectors A
from B . She then correctly calculates the
length and orientation of the third side C . What is her
result?
![A + B + C = 0
C = ? m
B = 105 m
B 11
B
21°
A = 80 m
