(iii) Explain why the length ofthe fence needed can never be I 1 m. trl
Since the maximum value of sin(d+36.9') is 1,
of AB + BC + CD = l0sin (A + 36.9") =
the maximum value 1 0 (1) = 1 0.
Therefore AB+BC+CD can never be 1l m.
(iv) Find the values of d for which the length of the fence is 8.5 m. t3l
l0sin(d+36.870')= 8.5
sin(B+36.870')= 0.85
Basic angle = sin{ (0.85)

Since sin(d+36.870') is positive, d is acute and 36.8?0'< d+36.870" < 126.870",
