It is in the air 5.625 seconds.

Using the quadratic formula,

t=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}
\\
\\=\frac{-90\pm \sqrt{90^2-4(-16)(0)}}{2(-16)}
\\
\\=\frac{-90\pm \sqrt{8100-0}}{-32}
\\
\\=\frac{-90\pm \sqrt{8100}}{-32}=\frac{-90\pm90}{-32}
\\
\\=\frac{-90+90}{-32}\text{ or }\frac{-90-90}{-32}=\frac{0}{32}\text{ or }\frac{-180}{-32}
\\
\\=0\text{ or }5.625

0 is when the ball is first launched, 5.625 is when it hits the ground again.

O is the centre of the circle and ABC and EDC are rangers to the circle. Find the side of angle BCD. You must give reason in you
AleksandrR [38]

Every line from the tangent to the centre is 90°. This is said in the circle theorems.

So angle OBC and ODC are 90°.

angle O is twice the size of angle F. This is another circle theorem.

Therefore angle O is 152°.

The quadrilateral of ODBC would equal to 360°. Which means 90° + 90° + 152° = 332°

360° - 332° = 28°.

The answer is 28°
