you are flying a kite at an angle of 70 degrees. you have let out a total of 400ft of string and are holding the reel steady 4 f

eet above the ground. a friend watching the kite estimates that the angle of elevation to the kite is 85 degrees. how far from your friend are you standing?

Answer:

170.466 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the kite had an angle of elevation of 70 degrees and 4 ft above the ground.

Using sine values, we find that the height of the kite above the reel would be

h = 400 sin 70=379.88

Total height from the earth = 379.88+4 = 383.88 ft.

The friend estimates the angle of elevations as 85 degrees

i.e. if d is the distance from the kite position, then we have

d=383.88 cot 85

=33.586 ft

Distance of you from the kite = 400 cos 70 = 136.8 ft

Distnce between friend and you = 136.88+33.586

= 170.466 feet

Answer: 170 ft away

First, find the height of the kite from the ground:

h + 4 = 400 sin 70
h + 4 = 379.88 ft (from the ground)

Then, my distance to the directly downwards of where the kite is flying is:

d = 400 cos 70
   = 136.8 ft

Then the distance of my friend from me:

D = 136.8 ft + (379.87) tan 85
    =  170 ft

Garrett works for a company that builds parking lots the graph shows the area of a parking lot based on the length of one side.
dedylja [7]

Answer: Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

this is a quadratic equation of the form:

y = ax^2 + bx + c

First, things you must see.

The graph opens up, so we must have thata a is greater than zero, so we can discard the first option.

Second, we can see that the vertex is located in x ≈ 70

The vertex of a quadratic equation is: x = -b/2a

so we have:

70 = -b/2a

let's try our options and see if we can discard other:

B:

-b/2a = 69.9/2 = 34.95

we can discard this option.

C:

-b/2a = 78/2 = 39 we can discard this option.

D:

-b/2a = 69.9/2*0.5 = 69.9

This is the only one that fits, so this is the correct option.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) we have to solve the associated equation

-16x^2 + 24x + 16 = 0

-2x^2 + 3x + 2 = 0

2x^2 -3x -2 = 0

Δ = 9 + 16 = 25

x1 = (3 + 5)/4= 2

x2 = (3 - 5)/4 =-1/2

the x intercepts are -1/2 and 2

2) a maximum because the parabola opens downwards (the first term is negative)

V(x) = -b/2a = -24/-32 = 3/4

V(y) = -16(9/16) + 24(3/4) + 16 = -9+18 + 16 = 25

V(3/4,25)

3) for draw a parabola is are necessary the coordinates of the vertex and of two points: one that lies to left of the vertex, and one that lies on the right to the vertex.

So we already have the necessary informations to draw it.
