Find the area of the largest rectangle (with sides parallel to the coordinate axes) that can be inscribed in the region enclosed

garik1379 [7]

F(x) = 18-x^2 is a parabola having vertex at (0, 18) and opening downwards.
g(x) = 2x^2-9 is a parabola having vertex at (0, -9) and opening upwards.
By symmetry, let the x-coordinates of the vertices of rectangle be x and -x => its width is 2x.
Height of the rectangle is y1 + y2, where y1 is the y-coordinate of the vertex on the parabola f and y2 is that of g.
=> Area, A
= 2x (y1 - y2)
= 2x (18 - x^2 - 2x^2 + 9)
= 2x (27 - 3x^2)
= 54x - 6x^3
For area to be maximum, dA/dx = 0 and d²A/dx² < 0
=> 54 - 18x^2 = 0
=> x = √3 (note: x = - √3 gives the x-coordinate of vertex in second and third quadrants)

d²A/dx² = - 36x < 0 for x = √3
=> maximum area
= 54(√3) - 6(√3)^3
= 54√3 - 18√3
= 36√3.

The angle of elevation from me to the top of a hill is 51 degrees. The angle of elevation from me to the top of a tree is 57 deg

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Approximately $101\; \rm ft$ (assuming that the height of the base of the hill is the same as that of the observer.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to the diagram attached.

Let $\rm O$ denote the observer.
Let $\rm A$ denote the top of the tree.
Let $\rm R$ denote the base of the tree.
Let $\rm B$ denote the point where line $\rm AR$ (a vertical line) and the horizontal line going through $\rm O$ meets. $\angle \rm B\hat{A}R = 90^\circ$ .

Angles:

Angle of elevation of the base of the tree as it appears to the observer: $\angle \rm B\hat{O}R = 51^\circ$ .
Angle of elevation of the top of the tree as it appears to the observer: $\angle \rm B\hat{O}A = 57^\circ$ .

Let the length of segment $\rm BR$ (vertical distance between the base of the tree and the base of the hill) be $x\; \rm ft$ .

The question is asking for the length of segment $\rm AB$ . Notice that the length of this segment is $\mathrm{AB} = (x + 20)\; \rm ft$ .

The length of segment $\rm OB$ could be represented in two ways:

In right triangle $\rm \triangle OBR$ as the side adjacent to $\angle \rm B\hat{O}R = 51^\circ$ .
In right triangle $\rm \triangle OBA$ as the side adjacent to $\angle \rm B\hat{O}A = 57^\circ$ .

For example, in right triangle $\rm \triangle OBR$ , the length of the side opposite to $\angle \rm B\hat{O}R = 51^\circ$ is segment $\rm BR$ . The length of that segment is $x\; \rm ft$ .

$\begin{aligned}\tan{\left(\angle\mathrm{B\hat{O}R}\right)} = \frac{\,\rm {BR}\,}{\,\rm {OB}\,} \; \genfrac{}{}{0em}{}{\leftarrow \text{opposite}}{\leftarrow \text{adjacent}}\end{aligned}$ .

Rearrange to find an expression for the length of $\rm OB$ (in $\rm ft$ ) in terms of $x$ :

$\begin{aligned}\mathrm{OB} &= \frac{\mathrm{BR}}{\tan{\left(\angle\mathrm{B\hat{O}R}\right)}} \\ &= \frac{x}{\tan\left(51^\circ\right)}\approx 0.810\, x\end{aligned}$ .

Similarly, in right triangle $\rm \triangle OBA$ :

$\begin{aligned}\mathrm{OB} &= \frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\tan{\left(\angle\mathrm{B\hat{O}A}\right)}} \\ &= \frac{x + 20}{\tan\left(57^\circ\right)}\approx 0.649\, (x + 20)\end{aligned}$ .
