An airplane takes off from the ground and reaches a height of 500 feet after flying 2 miles. given the formula h = d tan θ, wher

e h is the height of the plane and d is the distance (along the ground) the plane has flown, find the angle of ascent θ at which the plane took off.

Height covered by the plane=h= 500 feet

Distance covered by the plane along the ground=d= 2 mile

Now, convert the mile into feet,

1 mile = 5280 feet

2 mile = 10560 feet

Now, use the formula

h= d tanθ

tanθ= h/d

tanθ= 500/10560

tanθ= 25/528

Take the tan⁻¹ on both side,

θ= tan⁻¹(25/528)

θ =2.71°

What is the vertex of the following graph?
boyakko [2]

The graph represents a parabola and a parabola is maximum or minimum at its vertex . So we need to check the graph , and find the point where the graph is maximum or minimum. And from the given graph , we can say that it is a downward up parabola which is minimum at its vertex . And the minimum point is (1.4). So the vertex is (1,4) .
