A balloon is rising vertically at the rate of 12 feet per second; at the same time, it is being blown horizontally by a wind of

18 feet per second. Find the angle its path makes with the horizontal.

Answer:

Angle is 33.82°

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, from the figure below,

Vertical distance = 12 feet

Horizontal distance = 18 feet.

Using the trigonometric rule for the right triangles, we have,

\tan x=\frac{perpendicular}{base}

i.e. \tan x=\frac{12}{18}

i.e. \tan x=0.67

i.e. x=\arctan 0.67

i.e. x= 33.82°

Thus, the angle made by the path with the horizontal is 33.82°.

Natali [406]
Hello!

First of all let's divide and find how much each calculator cost.

95.2/14=$6.80

Now we will subtract from 24.

24-6.8= 17.2

Mr. Morris has $17.2 left to spend on each student.

I hope this helps!

All vectors are in Rn. Check the true statements below:
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

A), B) and D) are true

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We can prove it as follows:

Proy_{cv}y=\frac{(y\cdot cv)}{||cv||^2}cv=\frac{c(y\cdot v)}{c^2||v||^2}cv=\frac{(y\cdot v)}{||v||^2}v=Proy_{v}y

B) When you compute the product Ax, the i-th component is the matrix of the i-th column of A with x, denote this by Ai x. Then, we have that ||Ax||=\sqrt{(A_1 x)^2+\cdots (A_n x)^2}. Now, the colums of A are orthonormal so we have that (Ai x)^2=x_i^2. Then ||Ax||=\sqrt{(x_1)^2+\cdots (x_n)^2}=||x||.

C) Consider S=\{(0,2),(2,0)\}\subseteq \mathbb{R}^2. This set is orthogonal because (0,2)\cdot(2,0)=0(2)+2(0)=0, but S is not orthonormal because the norm of (0,2) is 2≠1.

D) Let A be an orthogonal matrix in \mathbb{R}^n. Then the columns of A form an orthonormal set. We have that A^{-1}=A^t. To see this, note than the component b_{ij} of the product A^t A is the dot product of the i-th row of A^t and the jth row of A. But the i-th row of A^t is equal to the i-th column of A. If i≠j, this product is equal to 0 (orthogonality) and if i=j this product is equal to 1 (the columns are unit vectors), then A^t A=I    

E) Consider S={e_1,0}. S is orthogonal but is not linearly independent, because 0∈S.

In fact, every orthogonal set in R^n without zero vectors is linearly independent. Take a orthogonal set \{u_1,u_2\cdots u_p\} and suppose that there are coefficients a_i such that a_1u_1+a_2u_2\cdots a_nu_n=0. For any i, take the dot product with u_i in both sides of the equation. All product are zero except u_i·u_i=||u_i||. Then a_i||u_i||=0 then a_i=0.
