The altitude a ( in feet) of a plane t minutes after lift off is given by a=3400t+600

Mathematics

Answer:

  6 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

'a' in the formula represents altitude in feet. You are told the altitude is 21000 feet, so put that into the formula:

   21000 = 3400t +600

You can solve this for t:

  20400 = 3400t . . . . . subtract 600 from both sides

  6 = t . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide both sides by 3400

The problem statement tells you that t represents minutes after lift off, so this solution means the altitude is 21000 feet 6 minutes after lift off.

The question is asking for the number of minutes after lift off that the plane reaches an altitude of 21000 feet, so this answers the question directly:

  The plane is at an altitude of 21000 feet 6 minutes after lift off.

In ΔABC , angle C is a right angle.
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:  Choice A. sin(A) = cos(B)

============================================================

Explanation:

The rule is that sin(A) = cos(B) if and only if A+B = 90.

Note how

  • sin(A) = opposite/hypotenuse = BC/AB
  • cos(B) = adjacent/hypotenuse = BC/AB

Since both result in the same fraction BC/AB, this helps us see why sin(A) = cos(B). Similarly, we can find that cos(A) = sin(B).

In the diagram below, the angles A and B are complementary, meaning they add to 90 degrees. So this trick only applies to right triangles.

The side lengths can be anything you want, as long as you're dealing with a right triangle.
