    How Do You Determine the Fourth Leg and Angles in a Sailboat Race Course?

    A sailboat race course consists of four legs defined by the displacement vectors A, B, C and Dshown above. The values of the angles are Θ1 = 35.00, Θ2 = 34.00, andΘ3 = 20.00. The magnitudes of the first three vectors are A = 3.0 km, B = 5.0 km and C = 4.5 km. The finish line of the course...
