With these questions, the best approach is to draw a diagram to represent the question. Draw a right angle triangle with an angle of elevation 29 degrees (make sure to label the angle that meets the base and hypotenuse as 29 degrees).

From here, we say that the hypotenuse is the slide itself, which is 5.4 metres. Using basic trigonometric ratios, we can deduce that:

sin(29) = x/5.4
x = 5.4sin(29) which is approximately 2.62 metres.

Find the equation that models the path of a satellite if its path is a hyperbola, a=55,000 km and c=81,000 km. Assume the center
Yuki888 [10]

Given:

Hyperbola

a=55,000 km and c=81,000 km

hyperbola is the origin and the transverse axis is horizontal

Required:

Equation of the path of a satellite

Solution:

Formula for hyperbola, (x-h)2/a2 – (x-k)2/b2 = 1

At origin, (h, k) = (0, 0)

(x-0)2/(55000)2 – (x-0)2/(81000)2 = 1
