Answer:
6π units
Step-by-step explanation:
Given::
Radius = 4
Angle measure of partial circle (θ) = 360° - right angle = 360° - 90° = 270°
Arc length = θ/360 × 2πr
Plug in the values
= 270/360 × 2 × π × 4
= 0.75 × 8 × π
= 6π units
Answer: Question 1 is m=-7/4
Question 2 is -4 as the y axis where it intercepts and the other coordinate is (3,-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given
height = 3.7 mi
radius = 3959 mi
We are asked for the distance between the man and the horizon
The straight line from the man to the horizon is a tangent line to the surface of the earth
Using Pythagorean theorem
(3.7 + 3959)² = 3959² + d²
Solve for d
d = 171 mi
This makes a right triangle with hypotenuse x+2 and legs 10 and x
10²+x²=(x+2)²
100 + x² = x²+4x+4
100=4x+4
4x=96
x=24, the height we are looking for
