Figure below shows the triange ABC formed by stakes inserted into ice before the deformation occurred; AB=BC=20m; AC=10m. The north-direction forms the angle 60° with the AC line. After the deformation, the lengths of AB, BC, and AC were measured to be 20.2m, 20.8m and 10.5m, respectively. Find: (a) the maximal relative elongation B (b) the direction of maximal relative elongation with respect to the North-direction north A
