Answer:
The distance of the plane from the base of the tower is 25.5 foot.
Step-by-step explanation:
As given
Max is in a control tower at a small airport.
He is located 50 feet above the ground when he spots a small plane on the runway at an angle of depression of 27°.
Now by using the trigonometric identity.
As shown in the figure given below
Perpendicular = CB
Base = AC = 50 feet
Put in the identity.
Put in the above
CB = 0.51 × 50
CB = 25.5 foot
Therefore the distance of the plane from the base of the tower is 25.5 foot.
Answer:
A pythagorean identity means that for any angle 
, 
.
This also means 
The symbol, theta () represents one of the acute angles in the right triangle. The hypotenuse (familiarly c in the regular pythagorean theorem) is 1. The triangle base is 
, and the height (side perpendicular to the base, making a right angle) is 
. The angle theta is opposite the side.
Step-by-step explanation:
The pythagorean theorem applies to right triangles, which always have a 90 degree angle. Pythagorean identities are used to simplify trigonometric expressions/evaluate trig functions and to find the trig ratios in a right triangle.
Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
Y component of velocity is 70 sin 30°
y position = 3 + 70 sin 30° * t - 1/2 a t^2
when the ball hits the ground y = 0
0 = 3 + 70 sin 30° t - 1/2 (32.2)t^2
- 16.1 t^2 + 35t + 3 = 0
Use Quadratic Formula to find t = <u>2.26 seconds</u>
Horizontal component of initial velocity
70 cos 30° distance horizontal = 70 cos 30° * t
= 70 cos 30° (2.26) =<u> 137.0 ft</u>
Answer:
The final position is 5 feet below the back of the truck
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets explain how to solve the problem
- A crane lifts a pallet of concrete blocks 8 feet from the back of
a truck
- The crane lowers the pallet 13 feet after the truck drives away
- Assume that the zero level of the position of the ballet of concrete
blocks is the back of the truck
∵ The crane lifts the pallet of concrete blocks 8 feet from the back
of the truck
- That means it take the pallet from zero to 8
∴ The height of the pallet of concrete blocks is 8 feet over
the starting position
∵ The crane lowers the pallet of concrete blocks 13 feet
- That means the crane lower the pallet from the height 8 and
lift it down 13 feet, so we must to take out from the 8 feet the
13 feet to find the final position of the pallet of concrete blocks
∴ The pallet position is ⇒ 8 - 13 = -5
∴ The position of the pallet of concrete blocks is 5 feet below the
starting position which is the back of the truck
* The final position is 5 feet below the back of the truck
