(trilateration). The point can then be fixed as the third point of a triangle with one known side and two

known angles.

Q: What should you not do for someone suffering from heat stroke? - Ans:✔✔-A: Ice Blanket, do not give

them food or water. While waiting for the paramedics to arrive, initiate first aid. Move the person to an

air-conditioned environment -- or at least a cool, shady area -- and remove any unnecessary clothing. If

possible, take the person's core body temperature and initiate first aid to cool it to 101 to 102 degrees

Fahrenheit. If no thermometers are available, don't hesitate to initiate first aid.


You may also try these cooling strategies:


• Fan air over the patient while wetting his or her skin with water from a sponge or garden hose.


• Apply ice packs to the patient's armpits, groin, neck, and back. Because these areas are rich with blood

vessels close to the skin, cooling them may reduce body temperature.


• Immerse the patient in a shower or tub of cool water, or an ice bath.


Q: What should you not do for someone suffering from a heart attack? - Ans:✔✔-A: non-prescription

pain medication


Q: On what waterways can a watercraft operator receive a DWI? - Ans:✔✔-A: By operating a vessel on

Missouri waters, you have consented to be tested for alcohol or drugs if so requested by a law

enforcement official. If you refuse to be tested, you will be subject to arrest and punishment consistent

with the penalties described above.
