A helicopter hovers over a mountain top, and a professional snowboarder drops onto the snow 252525 feet below. the snowboarder's

height off the ground, in feet, while falling can be modeled by a quadratic function of seconds of falling, ttt, which has the form h(t) = d - at^2h(t)=d−at 2 h, left parenthesis, t, right parenthesis, equals, d, minus, a, t, start superscript, 2, end superscript. if the snowboarder is still 212121 feet above the ground after falling for 0.50.50, point, 5 seconds, how long does the entire 252525 foot drop take? round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a second.

Given:
  h(t) = 25 - a·t²
  h(0.5) = 21

Find:
  t such that h(t) = 0

Solution:
  h(0.5) = 25 - a·0.5² = 21
  25 - 21 = a/4
  4·4 = a = 16
Then
  h(t) = 25 - 16t²
We want h(t) = 0, so
  0 = 25 - 16t²
  16t² = 25
  t² = 25/16 = (5/4)²
  t = 5/4 = 1.25

It takes 1.25 seconds for the entire 25 ft drop.

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the identity

tan²x = sec²x - 1

Consider left side

sec²x + tan²x

= sec²x + sec²x - 1

= 2sec²x - 1

= right side , thus verified

Answer:

Since 64= 2^6, you have the following arrangements.

Optional: 64 \times 1 (and it's mirror version 1 \times 64, if you want to consider a long strip of bottles a rectangle. Technically it is, but it's open to interpretation.

32 \times 2 and it's mirror 2 \times 32;

16 \times 4 and it's mirror 4 \times 16;

Optional: 8 \times 8. Since a square is a rectangle with extra limitations.
