Question:
A boat is travelling at 30 mph has a 400 ft. tow line results in the height of the rider in the parasail above the water level of 300 ft.
a) Draw a labelled diagram of the situation
b) Determine the angle of elevation of the parasail rider
c) Parasailing boats traveling at the same speed will have the same angle of elevation
Answer:
a) Please find the attached drawing of the parasail boat created with MS Visio
b) The angle of elevation of the parasail rider from the boat is approximately 48.6°
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Please find the labelled diagram of the parasailing boat created with MS Visio
b) sing trigonometric ratios, we have;
The opposite leg = The height of the parasail rider above water = 300 ft.
The hypotenuse = the length of the tow line = 400 ft.
θ = The angle of elevation of the parasail rider
θ = Arctan(0.75) ≈ 48.6°
The angle of elevation above the horizontal of the parasail rider from the boat, θ ≈ 48.6°
c) From the construction of the drawing and the derivation of the angle of elevation given only the length of the tow line and the height given to the parasail rider by the speed of the both,
Parasailing boats traveling at the same speed, having the same length of tow line, will have the same angle of elevation, provided other factors that have an effect on the angle of elevation are the same
Answer:
160:340
Step-by-step explanation:
The hours between 2:00pm and 4:00pm is 2 hours. If originally 350 freshman and 200 sophomores are at the carnival, and 20 freshman leave every hour, we can determine how many freshman left in 2 hours:
and if 35 sophomores arrive every half our, we know that for every two hours there is 4 half hours, therefore:
The amount of freshman at 4:00pm:
and the amount of sophomores:
the ratio is 160:340
