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.
