Find the radius of the circle by finding the distance between the viewer and the beacon. 
then find the circumference by using 2πr2

this will be the distance the light covers over 1 revolution.
then using dimensional analysis:
3 rev/min (7.037 km/rev) (60 min/1 hr) = 1266.7 km/hr

An angle is 26.2° more than its complementary angle what is the measure of each angle
Mila [183]

Answer:

58.1 and 31.9 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

x + other angle = 90 because complementary angles add up to 90

x = the angle

x = 26.2 more than the other angle

subtract 26.2 from both sides

x - 26.2 = other angle

x + other angle = 90

plug x - 26.2 for other angle

x + (x-26.2) = 90

2x - 26.2 = 90

add 26.2 to both sides to isolate the variable and its coefficient

2x = 116.2

divide both sides by 2 to find x

x = 58.1

other angle = x - 26.2 = 31.9
