You need to use trigonometry
1. Tan37=x/2.1

Remark
It is a calculator problem. All you have to do is make sure your calculator is set to degrees.

Definition
The Tangent is defined as

Tan(A) = opposite side / adjacent Side

Givens
A = 37°
adjacent = 2.1
opposite = ???

Sub and solve
Tan (37) = 0.75335
0.75335 = x / 2.1 Multiply both sides by 2.1
2.1 * 0.75335 = x
x = 1.58246 <<<<< answer

NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE: NO DECIMAL.
If there is no decimal between the 2 and the 1 in 2.1 then the answer is
15.246 No Decimal <<<<< ANSWER.

Answer:

66.56 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find the circumference of a circle with radius 8 cm.

2 * 8 * 3.14 = 50.24

Now, since we only need a 1/4 of the circumference, divide that number by 4

50.24 / 4 = 12.56

Add up the rest of the sides

12.56 + 10 + 17 + 10 + 9 = <u>66.56</u>

An airplane pilot is fertilizing a field. The height y in feet of the fertilizer t seconds after it is dropped is modeled by y(t

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

About 360.178 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

So we want the vertical distance between the fertilizer and the ground to be 0.

This going to be about the time the pilot has dropped it

So we first need to find when y is 0.

$0=-16t^2-3t+300$

We are going to use the quadratic formula to solve for t:

$a=-16$

$b=-3$

$c=300$

The quadratic formula is:

$t=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$t=\frac{3 \pm \sqrt{(-3)^2-4(-16)(300)}}{2(-16)}$

$t=\frac{3 \pm \sqrt{9+19200}}{-32}$

$t=\frac{3 \pm \sqrt{19209}}{-32}$

$t=\frac{3+\sqrt{19209}}{-32} \text{ or } \frac{3-\sqrt{19209}}{-32}$

$t \approx -4.424891774 \text{ or } 4.237391774$

So the pilot has released it at about 4.237391774 seconds since the fertilizer has actually hit the ground at roughly this time.

So we want to know the horizontal distance at t=4.237391774:

$85t$

$85(4.237391774)$

$360.1783008$

360.178 feet
