Answer:
1/10 per sec
Step-by-step explanation:
When he's walked x feet in the eastward direction, the angle Θ that the search light makes has tangent
tanΘ = x/18
Taking the derivative with respect to time
sec²Θ dΘ/dt = 1/18 dx/dt.
He's walking at a rate of 18 ft/sec, so dx/dt = 18.
After 3seconds,
Speed = distance/time
18ft/sec =distance/3secs
x = 18 ft/sec (3 sec)
= 54ft. At this moment
tanΘ = 54/18
= 3
sec²Θ = 1 + tan²Θ
1 + 3² = 1+9
= 10
So at this moment
10 dΘ/dt = (1/18ft) 18 ft/sec = 1
10dΘ/dt = 1
dΘ/dt = 1/10 per sec
Answer:
theta = 24.4 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a right triangle.
sin theta = opp/ hyp
sin theta = 33/80
Take the inverse of each side
sin^-1 sin(theta) = sin^-1 (33/80)
theta =24.36197794
To the nearest tenth
theta = 24.4 degrees
Standard form is ax + by = c.
To change y+2 = 3(x-2) into that form, do:
y+2-2 = 3x -6 -2
-3x + y = -8
Which is not in the list, so none of the answers are right...
