Maths Assignment, Heeelp Meeeeeee!

[MaxPowerMrs]

Arghhhh, I'm **TRYING** to do this assignment right now. it's on longitude and all that crap...and well I really need some help because there's a test on it tomorrow and I'm SO CLUELESS and arghhhh.



So anyway, I'll write out the general gist of the question and if anyone can help me, within the next 2 hours I;d be hella greatful...



1.) Write an equation or a way you can work out the degrees west of the prime meridian and TLT (true local time).

If you know that your true local time is 17:48 hours (assume GMT [greenwich mean time] is still 19:00), use your equation to prove that you must live on longitude 18degrees west of Greenwich.



2.) Write an equation that related the degrees east of the prime meridian and TLT



They're the two questions that I'm really stuck on...I was really sick last week so I was away when the teacher was explaining to everyone...it was actually due last week but tomorrow's my first day back after being sick, there's no chance of getting an extention.



Help, help, help!!! I really hope SOMEONE can make some sense of it...



Thanks
