A plane descends 1000 ft while flying 2.7 mi. What is the angle of descent?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Murrr4er [49]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

4.02°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle of descent can be obtained using trigonometry ;

Since we have a right angled triangle ;

Let's use the relation:

Sin θ = opposite / hypotenus

Hypotenus = 2.7 miles

1 mile = 5280 feets

2.7 miles = (2.7 * 5280) = 14256 feets

Sin θ = 1000 / 14256

Sin θ = 0.0701459

θ = sin^-1(0.0701459)

θ = 4.0223674

A circle with a radius of 5 sits in a 11 X 11 rectangle. What is the area of the shaded region?
Nataly_w [17]
Hi :) I'm guessing the shaded region is the region inside the rectangle but outside the circle.

To solve this problem, you need to find the area of the rectangle and area of the circle. Then subtract the circle's area from the rectangle's.

Area of a rectangle: length × width
The problem already tells you the area of the rectangle, because it says it is an 11 × 11 rectangle.
(11)(11) = 121

Area of rectangle: 121 units²


Area of a circle: \pi r^2
Plug in 5 for the radius r.

\pi 5^2 = 78.5

Area of circle: 78.5 units²


Now subtract 78.5 from 121.
121 - 78.5 = 42.5

The area of the shaded region is 42.5 units².

The table shows the height of water in a pool as it is being filled. A table showing Height of Water in a Pool with two columns
icang [17]

Answer:

The height of the water increases 2 inches per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope is always the ratio of

y coordinate change / x coordinate change

in our case, x is the time (minutes), and y is the water height (inches).

we see, the longer the pool get filled, the higher the water gets. logical, right ?

by checking the data points we see :

with every 2 minutes passing the water height increases by 4 inches.

so, the slope is +4/+2 = 2/1 = 2

and that ratio tells us now the increase of the water height with every fraction or multiple of the measured 2-minute interval.

every 2 minutes 4 inches more.

so, e.g. every 3×2 = 6 minutes we get 3×4 = 12 inches more.

and - every 1/2 × 2 = 1 minute more we get 1/2 × 4 = 2 inches more.
