Hi, Now that we can handle the Cos formula and GC sailing here is a poser! A ship sails from a position off Valpraiso Lat 33�01'S, Long 72�10'W to a position off San Francisco Lat 37�50'N, Long 123�14'W a) Find the initial course and GC distance. b) Find the position of the ship as it crosses the equator and the course it crosses the equator.
