We know that:
time=distance/speed
if the tortoise speed is x m/min, then since 0.5 m/hr=1/120 m/min
18/x=23+18/(x+1/120)
solving for x we get:
x=0.08 m/min
speed of hare is:
(0.08+1/120)=0.088 m/min
Answer:
52
Step-by-step explanation:
1st term is =60-8=52
a2=60-16=44
a3=60-24=36
a4=60-32=28
a5=60-40=20
a6=60-48=12
....
sI the terms are 52,44,36,28, 20,12,4,-4,-12....
so the largest term is 52
You have two 30-60-90 triangles, ADC and BDC.
The ratio of the lengths of the sides of a 30-60-90 triangle is
short leg : long leg : hypotenuse
1 : sqrt(3) : 2
Using triangle ADC, we can find length AC.
Using triangle BDC, we can find length BC.
Then AB = AC - BC
First, we find length AC.
Look at triangle ACD.
DC is the short leg opposite the 30-deg angle.
DC = 10sqrt(3)
AC = sqrt(3) * 10sqrt(3) = 3 * 10 = 30
Now, we find length BC.
Look at triangle BCD.
For triangle BCD, the long leg is DC and the short leg is BC.
BC = 10sqrt(3)/sqrt(3) = 10
AB = AC - BC = 30 - 10 = 20
