After taking off from the landing pad, a helicopter flies 3 miles west, then 2 miles southeast. How far is the helicopter from t
he landing pad? If someone could explain to that would be very helpful
1 answer:
Answer:
When the plane makes its turn to fly southeast, it makes a 45º angle at point a, making angle abc also equal to 45º.
Line ab is the 2 miles southeast the plane flies.
Line ac = line cb
sine (45º) = opposite / hypotenuse = cb / 2
.70711 = cb / 2
cb = 1.41422 miles = line ac
Line cs = 3 - 1.41422 = 1.58578
Line x^2 = cs^2 + cb^2
Line x^2 = 2.5146982084 + 2.0000182084
Line x^2 = 4.5147
Line x = 2.1248

now, let's notice the minor arc of 26x°, let's recall that a circle has a total of 360°, thus if the minor arc is 26x°, then the major arc has to be the difference of 360 and that much, namely 360 - 26x.
Check the picture below.
Answer:
E(X) = 1.28
Var(X) = 0.6016
E(X | Y=2) = 1.6667
Var(X | Y=2) = 0.4272
