Answer #1

To convert the azimuth into bearing we must first determine the quadrant in which the line lies. For this the given azimuth is converted completely into degrees as shown.

Then as the bearing is greater than 90 and less than 180 it lies in second quadrant. Now as bearing is denoted with respect to either south or north. The angle between the line and the South is found as 180-116.235556 = 63.764444°

Therefore the bearing of the line whose azimuth is 116° 14' 8" is S63.764444E

The temperature at a point (x, y) is T(x, y), measured in degrees Celsius. A bug crawls so that its position after t seconds is given by x = sqrt(1 + t) , y = 8 + 1 /8 t, where x and y are measured in centimeters. The temperature function satisfies Tx(3, 9) = 9 and Ty(3, 9) = 1. How fast is the temperature rising on the bug's path after 8 seconds? (Round your answer to two decimal...
