The document contains information about calculating lengths, angles, and areas of triangular plots of land from given measurements. It provides:
1) Details of a triangular park ABC where AB is 79km, BC is 62km, and angle ABC is 52 degrees, and asks to calculate the length of AC and area of the park.
2) A diagram of a triangular piece of land DCE where some side lengths are given but CE and DE pass through a swamp, and asks to find the size of angles ACB and DCE (given as 85.5 degrees), and the length of DE.
3) Given that angle CDE is twice angle DEC, it asks to find the size of DEC and

[3 marks] A park in the form of a triangle, ABC, is shown in the following diagram. AB is 79 km and BC ∧ is 62 km. Angle ABC is 52°.
Calculate the length of side AC in km.
3b. [3 marks] Calculate the area of the park. 4a. [4 marks] A surveyor has to calculate the area of a triangular piece of land, DCE. The lengths of CE and DE cannot be directly measured because they go through a swamp. AB, DE, BD and AE are straight paths. Paths AE and DB intersect at point C. The length of AB is 15 km, BC is 10 km, AC is 12 km, and DC is 9 km. The following diagram shows the surveyor’s information.
(i) Find the size of angle 𝐴𝐶𝐵.
(ii) Show that the size of angle 𝐷𝐶𝐸 is 85.5∘ , correct to one decimal place. 4b. [5 marks] The surveyor measures the size of angle CDE to be twice that of angle DEC. (i) Using angle DCE = 85.5∘ , find the size of angle DEC. (ii) Find the length of DE. 4c. [4 marks] Calculate the area of triangle DEC.
