b) Determine the surface area of triangular face AFG.

c) Determine the vector component of parallel to the line AG. Also determine the normal component of F

to

the line AG. A force F

is directed along edge AH as shown (F=486 N)

8) Observers on Earth at points A and B measure direction

cosines of position vectors to the space shuttle at C as

For : cos x

= 0.360, cos y

= 0.480 and cos z

<90°.

For : cos x

= –0.515, cos y

= – 0.606 and cos z

<90°.

Determine the x, y, z coordinates of the space shuttle

located at point C and also the shortest distance from point

C to direction AB.
