Answer:
A) x = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
ABCD is a rhombus, AC and BD are diagonals which intersect each other at point E.
Since, diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular bisector.
Let
x-------> t<span>he horizontal length of the roller coaster
y------> </span>the elevation of the roller coaster
c------> t<span>he incline of a roller coaster
</span>
we know that
applying the Pythagoras theorem
c²=x²+y²-----> equation 1
c=2y-----> equation 2
x=11+y----> equation 3
substitute equation 2 and equation 3 in equation 1
[2y]²=(11+y)²+y²
4y²=11²+22y+y²+y²
2y²-22y-121=0
using a graph tool-----> to resolve the second order equation
see the attached figure
the solution is
y=15.026 m
c=2*y-----> c=2*15.026----> c=30.052 m
the answer is
30.05 m
