Draw a right triangle so that its hypotenuse is 600 ft. The adjacent side is below the vertical, and it makes an angle of 75° with the hypotenuse.

Let h =  height of the right triangle.
By definition,
sin75° = h/600
h = 600*sin75° = 579.555 = 580 ft (nearest ft)

Answer: 580 ft (nearest foot)

Answer:

Height, h = 580 ft

Explanation:

It is given that,

The distance traveled by the plane, d = 600 feet

The airplane takes off at an angle of 75° from its starting point.

Let h is the vertical height above the runway. It is the trigonometric problem. Let h is the height of the vertical height above the runway. It can be calculated using the trigonometric formula as :

sin\theta=\dfrac{h}{d}

sin(75)=\dfrac{h}{600}

h = 579.55 feet

or

h = 580 ft

So, the vertical height above the runway is 580 feet. Hence, this is the required solution.

g John is walking along a trail when he comes to the bottom of a steep cliff. Before trying to climb up it, he wonders how high
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

179.655m

Explanation:

Given

Maximum speed of the arrow v = 60m/s

Time taken to hit the top of the cliff t = 7.0s

Required

Height of the cliff H

Using the equation of motion

H = vt + 1/2gt²

Substitute into the formula:

H = 60(7) + 1/2 (-9.81)(7²) (g is negative due to upward motion of the arrow)

H = 420-4.905(49)

H = 420-240.345

H = 179.655m

Hence the cliff is 179.655m high
