In sailing, it is not possible to head straight into the wind. In order to get upwind, a sailboat simply sails at an angle to the wind and then turns to sail back toward where it wants to go. Assume that a boat needs to get directly upwind 6000 m. If it sails off at a 45 degree angle to the wind and then turns back 90 degrees towards the original goal, how far would it have to sail to get directly upwind 6000 meters? Round to the nearest tenth. Distance to get directly upwind 6000 meters: meters 8485.3 10392.3 4242.6 6000
