Trigonometric Functions:


You have the angle and the adjacent. You need to find the hypotenuse (PR). Therefore, you use cos.

Rearrange the formula to find H (PR):

14.463 ~ 14.5

14.5°</h2>
Answer:
The skydiver will fall 1600 ft in 10 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Distance a body falls from rest varies directly as the squares of the time it falls </u>
Let distance = s
time = t
Therefore , s = k 
Given, the body falls 64 ft in 2 seconds.
Substituting in above equation,
64 = k 
64 = k 
k = 
k = 16 ft/
We have to find how much he will fall in 10 seconds.
s = k 
s = 
s = 
s = 1600 ft
Wait so are the sides of the octagon 9 inches each or do we have to find that?
