I'm stuck on q4iii, I have no idea on finding the shortest path. I have tried splitting the triangle at point C so there is a right angle triangle and working it out from there. I have looked at the mark scheme and I have no idea how they got d=2*sin40

Draw a straight line from C to the line AB. Now you have a new right angled triangle, with longest side 2km. Sin = opp/hyp so the length is 2 (hyp) multiplied by sin40

therefore 2*sin40=opp?
