Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related TRIG.124 Check triangle and vector results for validity and reasonableness skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

A robot moves on a grid using displacement vectors. Two vectors have magnitudes |u| = 15 and |v| = 4. A student claims |u + v| = 15. Which statement correctly validates the claim?

AReasonable because the result must be at least 15.

BReasonable because the result must equal 15+4 = 19 exactly.

CNot reasonable because the smallest possible result is 19.

DReasonable: the magnitude must satisfy 11 ≤ result ≤ 19. Since 15 is in that range, it could be correct.

Solution & Explanation:Use the triangle inequality for vectors: the resultant magnitude must be between |abs(u)-abs(v)abs(= 11 and)uabs(+)v| = 19. Compare 15 to this interval.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

A spacecraft thruster produces a small change in velocity vector. Let u = (3, 1) and v = (-2, 5). A student says the angle between u and v is acute. Which statement correctly validates the claim?

ACorrect because the angle is acute whenever both vectors have positive x-components.

BCorrect because u·v = 7, and that number decides the angle type.

CNot correct: u·v = 3(-2) + 1(5) = -1. A negative dot product means the angle is obtuse, not acute.

DNot correct because the angle type depends only on abs(u) + abs(v), not the dot product.

Solution & Explanation:Compute the dot product u·v = ux*vx + uy*vy = -1. If it is positive the angle is acute, if negative the angle is obtuse, and if zero the angle is right.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

A stage crew uses three cables to make a triangular rig. In a triangle, sides a = 9 and b = 9 include angle C = 60 degrees. A student uses the Law of Cosines and reports side c = 9.0. Which statement correctly validates this result?

AReasonable: c² = a² + b² - 2ab cos(C) = 81+81-2(9)(9)cos(60). This gives c ≈ 9.0, matching 9.0 after rounding.

BReasonable because c must equal a + b = 18.

CNot reasonable because c should be between 0 and 18, and 9.0 is outside that range.

DReasonable because c² = a² + b² + 2ab cos(C), so c is larger when C is 60 degrees.

Solution & Explanation:Apply the Law of Cosines: c² = a² + b² - 2ab cos(C). Substituting gives c ≈ 9.0. Compare this to 9.0 to judge reasonableness.
