Answer to Problem 29RP

Measure of angle 1= 39°50'44"

Explanation of Solution

Given information: In the given figure a straight line is given where measurement of two angles is given as 69°29',70°40'16" and m1 is to be found.

Calculation:

We know that sum of all the angles on a straight line add up to 180°

So, here  69°29' + 70°40'16"+ m1=180°......................................(i)

Converting given angles completely in degrees using DMS(Degree ,minute, second) relation according to which to convert minute(‘) into degree we divide by 60 and to convert seconds(“) into degrees we divide by 3600

Considering 69°29' ,it can be written as sum of degrees and minutes as:

  69°29'= 69°+29'= 69°+(2960)°= 69° + 0.4833°=69.4833°............................................................(ii)

And 70°40'16" can be written as sum of degrees and minutes as:

  70°40'16"=70° + 40' + 16"= 70° + (4060)° + (163600)°= 70° + 0.6667° + 0.0044°= 70.6711°.....................................................................(iii)

Substituting values from (ii) ,(iii) into (i) we get :

    69.4833° + 70.6711° +m1= 180° 140.1544° + m1= 180° m1 = 180° - 140.1544° m1= 39.8456° .......................................(iv)

    

Now converting 39.8456° into degrees ,minutes and seconds by multiplying decimal part first by 60 to get minutes and then again multiplying the decimal part by 60 to get seconds as shown below;

Minutes = 0.8456° × 60 =50.736' = 50'

Seconds =

  0.736' × 60 = 44.16 " or 44" .

Plugging in values of minutes and seconds in (iv) we get:

  m1 = 39° 50' 44"

Conclusion:

  Measure of angle 1 or m1 = 39° 50' 44"
