Someone walk me through this thx

The way you'd find AC is by using the angle and the calculated side BC. This equation would be BC / sin(BAC) (found by using SohCahToa)
As you want to find the lower bound of this, you want the answer to be the lowest it can be. The way to do that is to make BC as small as it can be, and to make sin(BAC) as big as it can be (by making BAC as big as it can be)
You have the things rounded, not truncated, to 2sf and 1dp each, so you can find the biggest/smallest values they would be to just round to the value shown

so do i find the bounds first

#

before using trig

#

like

#

8.15<x<8.25 for BC

vernal juniper
#

Yes find the bounds

#

Then do the trig

pale axle
#

51.5<x<5.25

#

do those

#

look right

vernal juniper
#

Those are correct yeah

pale axle
#

i was confused on the bounds for 2 sig fig

#

alr

#

tysm

vernal juniper
#

Np

one more question, how do u know which one out of the angle and side to use the UB or the LB

#

Like how do u know to make the angle the UB and the side the LB

vernal juniper
#

So for both bounds, if you have a number on the numerator you want the same bound, and if you have a number on the denominator you want the opposite bounds

#

For instance if you want the largest speed, you'd want to cover the largest distance in the smallest time

#

That sort of thing

#

thanks would 10.3 be right then for LB of AC it doesnt have a markscheme

vernal juniper
#

Gimme a sec

#

Yes
