The Richter scale is used to rate the magnitude (M) of an earthquake based on the amount of
energy (E) released by the earthquake, measured in Joules. They are related by the equation

log10 ( E ) = a + 1.5M

Question 35 (4 marks)

A tall pole OT is held in place vertically by ropes anchored to two pegs in the ground 10 4
metres apart at A and B as shown. A is due west of O and B is at a bearing of 240°T
from O.

The rope connecting the top of the pole T to the peg at A is 3 3 metres long and makes an
angle of 60° with the ground.

Find the length of the rope connecting T and B. Give your answer to the nearest metre.
