Answer:

  a) 21.4 cm

  b) 45.6°

Step-by-step explanation:

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA is intended to remind you of the relationships between trig functions and sides of a right triangle. Here, two relevant function are ...

  Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

<h3>b) Angle P</h3>

The hypotenuse of the triangle, and the side adjacent to angle P are given, so we have ...

  cos(P) = (21 cm)/(30 cm)

The angle value can be found using the inverse cosine function:

  P = arccos(21/30)

  P ≈ 45.6°

<h3>a) Side p</h3>

Now, we know angle P and the side adjacent to it. We want to find the measure of side p, which is opposite the angle. This can be done using either the sine function or the tangent function. Here, we choose to use the tangent function.

  tan(P) = p/21

  p = 21×tan(P) = 21·tan(45.573°)

  p ≈ 21.4 . . . . cm

<em>Additional comment</em>

In the attached, part of the calculator keypad is shown so you can see that the inverse cosine function is the 2ND function of the Cos key. The calculator mode is set to DEG (lower left of display) so that angles are in units appropriate to this problem.

Of course, you can always use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of side p. More calculations are involved, so we used trig functions instead. Note that the angle P must be found first using the approach here, and its value must be retained with enough significant digits to ensure accuracy in the 'p' calculation.

Answer:

<u>p = 21.4 cm</u>

<u>∠P = 44°</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for the length of p.

  • p² + 21² = 30²
  • p² = 900 - 441
  • p² = 459
  • p = √459
  • \fbox {p = 21.4 cm}

Now, take the inverse sine function to find angle P :

  • sin⁻¹ (opposite side / hypotenuse)
  • sin⁻¹ (21/30)
  • sin⁻¹ (0.7)
  • \boxed {44^{o}} (approximately)

The fastest a human has ever run is 27 miles per hour. How many miles per minute did the human run
Kay [80]

(27 mi/hr) x (1 hr / 60 min)  =  (27/60) (mi/min)  =  0.45 mile/minute

Using the same kind of calculation, we can see
that the world record times for other distances
correspond to:

200 meters                  23.31 mph
400 meters                   20.72 mph
800 meters                   17.73 mph
1000 meters                 16.95 mph
1500 meters                 16.29 mph
1 mile (1,609 meters)    16.13 mph
2,000 meters                 15.71 mph
10,000 meters               14.18 mph
30,000 meters               12.89 mph
Marathon  (42,195 meters)    13.10 mph

Except for that one figure at the end, for the marathon,
which I can't explain yet and I'll need to investigate further,
it's pretty obvious that a human being, whether running for
his life or for a gold medal, can't keep up the pace indefinitely.
