He nine ring wraiths want to fly from barad-dur to rivendell. rivendell is directly north of barad-dur. the dark tower reports t
hat the wind is coming from the west at 68 miles per hour. in order to travel in a straight line, the ring wraiths decide to head northwest. at what speed should they fly (omit units)?
1 answer:
This problem is better understood with a given figure. Assuming that the flight is in a perfect northwest direction such that the angle is 45°, therefore I believe I have the correct figure to simulate the situation (see attached).
Now we are asked to find for the value of the hypotenuse (flight speed) given the angle and the side opposite to the angle. In this case, we use the sin function:
sin θ = opposite side / hypotenuse
sin 45 = 68 miles per hr / flight
flight = 68 miles per hr / sin 45
<span>flight = 96.17 miles per hr</span>

Answer:
(x +3)² +(y -4)² = 145
Step-by-step explanation:
The center of the circle is the midpoint of the given segment PQ. If we call that point A, then ...
A = (P +Q)/2
A = ((-12, -4) +(6, 12))/2 = (-12+6, -4+12)/2 = (-6, 8)/2
A = (-3, 4)
The equation of the circle for some radius r is ...
(x -(-3))² +(y -4)² = r² . . . . . . where (-3, 4) is the center of the circle
The value of r² can be found by substituting either of the points on the circle. If we use Q, then we have ...
(6 +3)² +(12 -4)² = r² = 9² +8²
r² = 81 +64 = 145
Then the equation of the circle is ...
(x +3)² +(y -4)² = 145
Answer:
Play 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Required [Missing from the question]:
Determine the play with the least change in yard?
To do this, we ignore the sign in front of each yard before we analyze.
So, we have:
Play 1 has a change of 4
Play 2 has 6
Play 3 has 2
Play 4 has 3
<em>From the above analysis, play has the least (which is 2)</em>
