36.6 km

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume the initial bearing of the boy is 35°. Then he will make a 90° turn to a heading of 125°. A diagram shows the distance of interest is the hypotenuse of a right triangle in which 35° is the angle opposite the side of length 21 km.

The relevant trig relation is ...

Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

sin(35°) = (21 km)/XZ

XZ = (21 km)/sin(35°) ≈ 36.61 km

The distance from X to Z is about 36.61 km.

_____

The attached diagram has the angles measured in the usual way for a Cartesian plane: CCW from the +x axis. This will correspond to bearing measures if we relabel the axes so that +x is North, and +y is East.

"it's not the heat, it's the humidity". that's a partly valid phrase you may have heard in the summer, but it's actually both. the heat index, also known as the apparent temperature, is what the temperature feels like to the human body when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature. this has important considerations for the human body's comfort. when the body gets too hot, it begins to perspire or sweat to cool itself off. if the perspiration is not able to evaporate, the body cannot regulate its temperature. evaporation is a cooling process. when perspiration is evaporated off the body, it effectively reduces the body's temperature. when the atmospheric moisture content (i.e. relative humidity) is high, the rate of perspiration from the body decreases. in other words, the human body feels warmer in humid conditions. the opposite is true when the relative humidity decreases because the rate of perspiration increases. the body actually feels cooler in arid conditions. there is direct relationship between the air temperature and relative humidity and the heat index, meaning as the air temperature and relative humidity increase (decrease), the heat index increases (decreases).

step-by-step explanation:

75% of the temperatures are below what value? how do you know? 75% of the temperatures are above w
