Plotting Ship C
1. The problem states that ship C is 45 km from ship B on a bearing of 124°.
2. Since the scale is 1 cm to 6 km, first convert 45 km to the scale length:
$$\text{Length on scale} = \frac{45}{6} = 7.5 \text{ cm}$$
3. To plot ship C from ship B on the scale diagram, measure 7.5 cm from B at an angle of 124° clockwise from North.
4. Because bearings are measured clockwise from North, draw a line from point B directed at 124°, then mark ship C at 7.5 cm along this line.
5. For part (ii) about drawing a chord of the circle: a chord is a straight line connecting two points on the circle. Draw any straight line inside the circle that touches the circumference at two points.
Final answers:
- Ship C is plotted 7.5 cm from B on a 124° bearing.
- Draw a chord by connecting two points on the circle.
