Answer:  71 degrees

Explanation:

Complimentary means that a pair of angles add up to 90 degrees.  

Let's call the first angle A and the second angle B.  

Then,

A + B = 90           and

A = 4B - 5            (5 less than 4 times the angle)

Now we can solve for A and B:

A + B = 90

-(A = 4B - 5)

So

A + B = 90

-A      = -4B + 5

B = -4B + 95

B + 4B = 95

5B = 95

B = 19

Now we can plug in B to solve for A.

A + B = 90

A + (19) = 90

A = 90 - 19

A = 71

The question asks for the number of degrees in the larger of the two angles, which is 71 degrees.

a helicopter flies parallel to the ground at an altitude of 1/2 kilometer and at a speed of 2 kilometers per minute. if the heli
Murrr4er [49]

The Pythagoras' theorem and the uniform motion allows to find the answer for the rate of change of distance is

               v = 32.3 m / s

The distance is the length of the segment that a white house wing with the helicopter, this can be found using the Pythagoras' theorem

               R = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2}

Where R is the distance, x is the horizontal distance where the helicopter flies and y is the vertical distance that corresponds to the flight height

y = 500 m

Since the helicopter flies at constant speed, we can use the uniform motion relation

              v_h = \frac{x}{t}

              x = v_ht

Where v_h is the speed of the helicopter and t is the time

We substitute  

                r = \sqrt {(V_h \ t)^2 + y^2}

Kinematics defines velocity as the change of position in the unit of time

            v = \frac{dR}{dt}

           v = \frac{1}{2} \  \frac{2 ( v_h t) v_h}{ \sqrt{(v_h t)^2 + y^2} }

           v = \frac{v_h^2 \ t}{ \sqrt{(v_h t)^2 + y^2} }

This expression is the change in distance as a function of time for a given speed. In the exercise, this speed is requested for a time of one minute, for the helicopter speed of

        v = 2km/min (\frac{1000m}{1km} ) ( \frac{1 min}{60s}) = 33.33 m / s

Let's calculate

            v = \frac{33.33^2 \ 60 }{ \sqrt{ )33.3 \ 60)^2 +500^2} }

         

            v = 32.3 m / s

In conclusion using the Pythagoras' theorem and the uniform motion we can find the answer for the rate of change in distance is

               v = 32.3 m / s
