Vladimir [108]

Answer:

The expression of h as function of x is   h = \sqrt{(d + 5500) (d - 5500)}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The distance of blimp  (AB) = 5500 feet

The slanted distance to the pagoda (BC) = d feet

The horizontal distance (AC) = h

Let the angle made between slanted distance and horizontal distance be Ф

So , cos Ф = \frac{AC}{BC} = \frac{h}{d}

And sin Ф =  \frac{AB}{BC} = \frac{5500}{d}

∵, cos²Ф = 1 - sin²Ф

So, (\frac{h}{d})^{2} = 1 - (\frac{5500}{d})^{2}

Or, (\frac{h}{d})^{2} = (\frac{d^{2}- 5500^{2}}{d^{2}})

Or,                                     h² = d² - 5500²

∴                                        h = \sqrt{d^{2}- 5500^{2}}

Or,                                     h = \sqrt{(d + 5500) (d - 5500)}

Hence The expression of h as function of x is   h = \sqrt{(d + 5500) (d - 5500)}     Answer

This is because you have to see what R is congruent to (based off the order) and you see N. Then you do the same thing for T and you get Q.
