An observer on the ground is x meters from the base of the launch pad of a rocket, which is at the same level as the observer. A

few seconds after the rocket takes off vertically, the observer sees its tip at an angle of q° from the horizontal. How far above the ground is the tip of the rocket at that instant? Assume that the ground is level.. a) x/ tan q. b) x/sin q. cx tan q. d) x cos q.

This can be solved using trigonometric functions. The distance x serves as one leg of a triangle, and makes an angle q with the hypotenuse. The distance from the tip of the rocket to the ground make up the other leg of the triangle. So solving this:

tan q = y / x

Where: y = distance from the tip of the rocket to the ground

Therefore, y = x tan q

Among the choices, the correct answer is C.

Find an equation of the parabola with vertex (-1, -5) and directrix x=-7.
Natalka [10]

Answer:

Base on the vertex (h, k) and the distance p between vertex and directrix, the standard form of parabola is written as:

(x – h)^2 = 4*p(y – k)

We have (-1, -5) as vertex.

=> (x + 1)^2 = 4*p(y + 5)

Now, we find p:

The distance between (-1, -5) and x = -7 is calculated by:

|-1 -(-7)| = |6| = 6

=> (x + 1)^2 = 4*6(y + 5)

=> (x + 1)^2 = 24(y + 5)

Hope this helps!
