To solve for
, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation.
The most important part of this is knowing that whatever we do to one side of the equation, we must also do to the other.
Subtract 32 from both sides of the equation.

Divide both sides of the equation by
.

Answer: Assuming the riders starts at the position (20, 0) on the x-axis, the exact position of the rider will be (20cos75, 20sin75) or about (5.18, 19.32).
The angle for 5pi/12 radians is 75 degrees. Therefore, to find the position we can use the sine and cosine of 75 to find the x and y value of the coordinate.
For the y-value, we can write and solve:
sin75 = x/20
For the x-value, we can write and solve:
cos75 = x/20
Answer= 70.7 meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that Elise walks diagonally from one corner of a square plaza to another. Each side of the plaza is 50 meters.
Since we know that diagonal of a square is product of side length of square and . So we will find diagonal of our given square plaza by multiplying 50 by .
Therefore, diagonal distance across the plaza is 70.7 meters.
