IfIf a free kick is given in a soccer game where the player taking the kick is 14 yards from the left post. How far is the kicker from the right post, to the nearest yard is: A. 23 yards.

Distance of the kicker from the right post

Using sine theorem

Let Left triangle=3/sinx=14/sin∝

Let Right triangle=5/sinx=y/sin(180°-∝°)

Let Sin∝°=sin(180°-∝°)  sinx=sinx

Let y represent how far is the kicker

Hence:

3/5=14/y

y=5×14/3

y=70/3

y=23.3333

y=23 yards (Approximately)

Therefore If a free kick is given in a soccer game where the player taking the kick is 14 yards from the left post. How far is the kicker from the right post, to the nearest yard is: A. 23 yards.
