Basically apply your radius and slant height to the formula to find the surface area of a cone which is S=3.14r^2+3.14rl
To get the time taken for Jan and Jo to meet we proceed as follows;
Jan's speed=70 mph
Jo's speed =60 mph
distance between =1170
relative speed=70+60=130
time taken for them to meet will be:
time=(distance)/(relative speed)
=1170/130
=9 hours
the answer is 9 hours
9/X = 4%/1
CHECK
CROSS MULTIPLY
9=4%X
DIVIDE BOTH SIDES BY 4%
9/4%= 4%X/4%
225=X
225 X 4% = 9
9=9
See the attached figure to better understand the problem
we know that
PB+BQ=1000 ft------->PB=1000-BQ-------> equation 1
in the triangle PAB
tan 50=AB/PB----------> AB=PB*tan 50------> equation 2
in the triangle ABQ
tan 25=AB/BQ------> AB=BQ*tan 25-------> equation 3
equals equation 2 and equation 3
PB*tan 50=BQ*tan 25--------> equation 4
substitute equation 1 in equation 4
[1000-BQ]*tan 50=BQ*tan 25-----> 1000*tan 50-BQ*tan 50=BQ*tan 25
BQ*[tan 25+tan 50]=1000*tan 50-----> BQ=1000*tan 50/[tan 25+tan 50]
BQ=718.76 ft
PB=1000-718.76-----> PB=281.24 ft
AB=PB*tan 50-----> 281.24*tan 50------> 335.17 ft
the answer is
335.17 ft
