Two boats leave the same port at the same time. One travels at a speed of 32 mi/h in the direction N 50° E, and the other travels at a speed of 23 mi/h in a direction S 70° E (see the figure). How far apart are the two boats after 1 h? (Round your answer to the nearest mile.)
Ratios
A ratio is a comparison between two numbers of the same kind. It represents how many times one number contains another. It also represents how small or large one number is compared to the other.
Trigonometric Ratios
Trigonometric ratios give values of trigonometric functions. It always deals with triangles that have one angle measuring 90 degrees. These triangles are right-angled. We take the ratio of sides of these triangles.
