r while the hare moves at 250 feet per hour. The tortoise takes 8 hours longer than the hare to finish. What was the distance of the race? Let t represent the unknown time in hours that it took the hare to complete the race. Write an expression (not an equation!) representing the time it took the tortoise to finish the race. Write two equations that represent the race, one for the hare and one for the tortoise. What is the distance of the race?

It 7 hours and 5 minutes to complete the race because it would be 8 times 50 which equals 400 and 400 plus 250 which equals 650 and 650 divided by 60 is 7.5 which is 7 hours and 5 minutes I believe so 7.5 is the answer.............

This a pretty typical right triangle trig problem; the first step is to figure out what we have and what we want in relation to an acute angle in the problem.

Here we have a right triangle, G=90°, and we're given angle F=23°.  So we have to name everything in relation to F.

31 = FG is <em>adjacent </em>to F.

x = GE is <em>opposite </em>to F.

OK, we have an opposite and adjacent; that tells us we need to use the tangent of F.  Let's write it:

tan 23° = tan F = opp/adj = x/31

Solving,

x = 31 tan 23°

I hate the calculator part.  I used to love that part.

x = 31 tan 23° ≈ 13.16 feet

Answer: 4) x ≈ 13.2 ft
