Time taken for Kristin to catch up with the truck will be found using the formula
time=(distance)/(speed)
distance=20 km
speed=90 km/h
thus
time=20/90=2/9 hours
Answer: 2/9 hours
If it were a complete circle, its circumference would be
(π) x (diameter) = (π) x (2R) = 70 π inches .
Since it's only half of the circle, the length of the curved part is
70 π / 2 = 35 π = <em>109.9 inches</em> .
We assume that the hill is represented by points ACD and the ski lift is represented by points BCD. From the description above, points CDB would have an angle of 90 degrees. Then, we would have:
sin (32) = CD / 960
CD = 508.72
tan 32 = 508.72 / AD
AD = 814.13
Therefore, the distance would be 814.13 - 508.72 = 305.4 ft.
